Edit Selection Follows Region List Selection->NOT!

[alteregg]

I just swithed to OSX and PT 7 from OS9 + PT 5.1 . To my surprise, if I click a captured (not separated) region on the Region List it does NOT select the region on the track - in fact it doesn't do anything!!! I have been using this feature since early 90's... Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong???

On preferences the"Edit Selection Follows Region List Selection" and "Region List Selection Follows Edit Selection" are ON, naturally.

I did a search in DUC and found out this feature has probably been missing also on PT LE 6.x ...any ideas??

TIA

..ok, Answering to myself: I trashed all the preferences as instructed in "General Troubleshooting - Pro Tools 6 & 7 Mac OS X" sticky - and that solved the problem! Hope this helps some body with a similar problem in the future..

...ok, now the problem is back just after a couple of days... I haven't changed anything...this is VERY annoying! I tried to fix the problem: Trashed all Digi prefs, trashed "Digidesign Databases" and rebooted (did this 4 times) but no luck...

So..if I capture a region i have NO WAY of locating it afterwards... However, locating SEPARATED regions on a track by selecting them on the region list works, which helps a bit (..otherwise PT would be useless for me..)

Clearly, this must be a bug. Could somebody from Digi PLEASE answer to this...

(My system: G5 2.0 GHZ, 1G RAM, MBOX2, PT 7 LE)

PS. Also, it would help a LOT to know if somebody else is also experiencing the same problem...

Upgraded to PT 7.1 ...and it still doesn't work.

Would somebody please be so kind to tell me if I'm the only one with this problem....

Digi support - wake up guys!

Ok, im not 100% if i follow you, am i reading that when you select a point in the timeline and when you push play then stop, Pro Tools doesnt return to the same point as it left off, it instead wants to just stop and start at the points at which you pressed start and stop. If this is the problem then just press 'N', i had the same problem, i think its located under the prefs under 'insertation follows playback' and is shortcutted by pushing N, so quite easy to hit accidentally. Post back and let us know.

take a look in the region-list and see if 'show autocreated regions' is flagged and/or in prefs: autoname autocreated regions... I had something similar before and the first suggestion resolved it.
