Control+P and Control+Semicolon in ProTools 2019.6

[Martin (Punky) Sopart]

Hello all!

When pressing Control+P or Control+Semicolon in ProTools 2019.6 under Mojave VO only announces the currently selected track.

Is there a new setting to make?

Selecting tracks using VO+Space inside the track list tagle is working.
Also selecting and editing audio is working.

Any ideas here?

Thanks and best! / Martin

Hi Martin,

What exactly is the problem? What's not happening that you expect to happen?

Hello Slau!

Sorry for my not clear words.

When selecting e.g. track 3 using VO+Space inside the track list table or Command+Option*F, the selection keeps the same when now pressing Control+P or Control+Semicolon.

Hi Martin,

You simpley add the (shift key) to the (Control P, and control
semicolon) and you will select tracks consecutively.

If you have a Hotspot set the query the Track List Table, you can then
hear the range of track that you have selected. The only drawback is
that Voiceover does not report the interval skips if they are not
consecutive. For example; if you select tracks 1,2,4,5, skipping
track 3, Voiceover reports “Tracks 1 through 5 selected.

Hello Slau!

Just to be shure  I duplicated the situation as follows:

Lounching Pro Tools 2019.6 including Flo Tools 2019.5.1;

Creating a new session using the Flo Tools template;

Creating a click track;

Adding 2 instrument tracks;

Selecting the click trak (first track);

When now pressing Control+Semicolon, the click track keeps selected and VO announces that track.

Best! / Martin

Hi Martin,

Be aware that the upgrade to 2019.6 resets Pro Tools preferences. So, by default, track and edit selection get unlinked. I think you said it was linked but I'd double-check that because, even though you might have had it set, it gets unchecked during the update. Also (and this happens to be true, although it may not apply in your current case), pressing Control semicolon or Control p will only move the insertion cursor through tracks that are showing and not tracks that are hidden.

HTH and keep us posted,

Slau

Hello Slau!

Thanks a lot again for your documentation regarding Flo Tools 2019.5 and Mojave.
Even I had a fresh installation of Mojave on a brand new Mac, first installed KM and then Pro Tolls 2019.6 also a fresh installation, and taking care of all security warnings, the accessibility settings for KM got damaged.
After unchecking and rechecking them, Control]P and Control]Semicolon work as expected again.

Strange is, that all other Flo Tools functions worked with the damaged accessibility settings.
Only the elementary Pro Tools track selection didn't.

Best! / Martin

Yeah, it was an unfortunate development this whole thing about Pro Tools now natively speaking because it'll never replace Flo Tools and, unfortunately, it also doesn't play nicely with Flo Tools either, not to mention that it doesn't report what type of track or even how many tracks are within a selection in real time. We have a potential solution that the Avid team can implement but that'll take a while. Glad to hear it's resolved for now.

Cheers,

Slau
