Default Preview mode

Can we please have an option somewhere in the prefs that allows PT not to flip from "touch" to "latch" after a "write to select" command. Infuriating

I have this option set to "No Change" and it still does it ALL the time.

Have you reported it via ASC? This is the setting to make and if it isn't working then that's an issue.
But only issues reported have a chance to be fixed.

Sorry but that's not it. The behaviour I describe has been around for years. I just think it's time Avid did something about it.

If the transport is moving when you press the write command it will switch to latch. If it isn't moving, it will work based on the selection above.

If you put your track to Touch/Latch it won't switch.
