Oh great… this hasn’t been fixed: Steinberg Forums

Did they “forget” about restoring this once properly working thing…?

This highlights the point I was trying to make. The date on the confirmed issue is Feb 21 2015. The date of the build is Feb 22 2015.

It’s not getting fixed in a day from being assigned to a developer, much less being confirmed on the public-facing forum.

This is why I think it’s good for Steinberg to continue the good practice of keeping the Collected Issues forum up to date.

Why waste valuable criticism airtime on bugs not humanly possible to fix, in such a short time, when there are so many other bugs and features that deserve the spotlight that have been outstanding for years.

We Cubase users need to pick our battles (of which items to vote for), or risk winning none of them.

I don’t trust Steinberg, alone, in these decisions. I think they’ve somewhat lost touch with what users want.

The focused, relentlessness of Bounce In Place requests is a good example of this user forum finally providing a undisputed vote for something.

I’m confident it was the forum, because the feature is missing way too many details and sub-features to have been purely Steinberg-desired (they’d have done it earlier and/or spent more time on it). They felt the heat to bring the feature into the v8 development cycle, because of us.

They do listen when something rises above the noisefloor.

I see your point and I agree. However, this “Zoom while locating in time scale” checkbox is a dead simple workflow thing that has been working properly since Cubase SX2. Since 8.0.0 it’s broken, and after two updates it is still broken. It is an obvious case of pure negligence and sloppiness.

EDIT: It does however make sense that it hasn’t yet been fixed, given that the build apparently is dated Jan 22 and the issue was confirmed at a later date.
