Cycles improvements

[gabrielefx]

Hi all,

I think that Cycle feature could be improved.

Example:

I created in live mode a sequence of various actions. (I created several buttons before)

Then I wanted to create a precise sequence starting the first action to 0:00:00

Then I wanted to give to all my actions a duration of exactly 3 seconds. Impossible to do it because is not possible to select all actions at the same time (switch mode)

Is not possible to press and hold the mouse button and increase/decrease duration, we have to click several times.

I think that the bars (or event) could be dragged in the timeline, now are fixed and we can't stretch their duration

Then I manually changed all events and I noticed that in the cycle view the bars have not the same duration. There is no correspondence between switch and cycle.

Regards

Multi selection of cycle elements for editing will be done in the future

This would require a component change which is not something we plan to do right now, however I'll make a note of it should we ever make a new design of the software

A cycle is just a cuelist. There is no duration, just an ON trigger and an OFF trigger, therefore the width of the bars on the timelines are irrelevant
