Menu item naming: "Delete" vs "Delete..."
Hi all,
Just wanted to post a strange bug and wonder if anyone can replicate. I use custom keyboard shortcuts a lot in PT on MacOS and I made a shortcut for track delete today. I´m working on several sessions (all created on the same machine and system on the same day) While switching between sessions I noticed that my new shortcut wouldn´t work in all of them. When I went into Menu>Track I saw that PT sometimes names the menu command "Delete" and other times it´s named "Delete...". I´ve never seen this before as I´ve not been paying much attention to it until now. For those who don´t know, creating a custom shortcut in MacOS requires you to write out the menu command exactly as it is in the software so this is an inconveniance (although a minor one) I´m using PT 2021.3.0 on Mac OS 10.14.6

Lucky you! at least you can create shortcut macros in OS for PT! The windows version of PT is totally crippled in this regard.
(sorry for the rant)

Re: BUG REPORT: Menu item naming
I think I´ve figured it out...
If said command will be followed by a prompt window, it will show the three dots after. So if the delete function will delete the track without question = no dots If the delete function is going to give me options before deletion = Three dots

Re: BUG REPORT: Menu item naming
Yes I've done the same thing. There was a time when I went mad for making shortcuts this way but I found myself getting tripped up when moving rigs or updating OS so I weaned myself off it. Would still love an actual built-in shortcut for "Show/Hide Color Palette"...
