[Frank Kruse]

Hi Eddie,

plugin/pan etc. windows following track selection seems to be broken again in 19.9.1 with 2019.6.

Can we get a fix? Still broken in 2019.10.

Please post your general settings page from EuControl and tell me how/where you are selecting a track.

Hi Eddie,

I think the confusion is that you have to have "Attention on select button press" off otherwise only that will work. When turned off it does work. So it's an either/or option I guess.

Thing is: Once I had done that I could switch it back on without losing the windows following. Seems to be an intermittent bug. By colleague next door has the exact same setting and it doesn't work for him regardless the settings.

Thanks

Frank

Hard to say what I USED to have that worked, since with all the new options I may now have something that is different.

In any case, toggling "Attention on Select Button Press" does not get it to work with my Artist Control, not if I touch the faders or the actual "Select Button". Screenshot of setting attached.

OS 10.13.6, PT 2019.10, Eucon 19.9.0.108.

Deselecting "Select Most Recently Attentioned Track" allows control surface to select other tracks, and the plugin in the corresponding slot on the newly selected track will populate the surface.

BUT

Pro Tools window does not follow, and the initially opened plugin GUI remains on the screen.

AND

Plugin may not populate control surface when selected from Pro Tools, e.g. Massey L2007, bx_console... but it WILL populate when some other plugin is selected, populates, THEN control surface chooses the track with the formerly unattentioned plugin now appearing on the control surface (newly attention plugin GUI still does not appear).

Bumping this up because it's also driving me crazy!

I've been on an S6 lately so I'm just now noticing it not working on the Artist Control, any workarounds or we're just waiting for an EUC update?
