dereksamuelreese Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Hello everyone, i have finally made the transition from Logic 9 to Logic X, with an apogee ensemble thunderbolt. wow, i am really enjoying this new territory. My key commands have all ported over nicely, with the exception of a few lol. When i am in the arrange window, scrolling the tracks on the left side of the page everything is good, until i come to the end or the top of the page, and suddenly the screen flashes and i get a dialog box saying "Command not available because the last track is already selected" Its not a huge deal, but a little irritating. Can someone please tell me a work around ? Thank you and have a great weekend everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 i come to the end or the top of the page, and suddenly the screen flashes and i get a dialog box saying "Command not available because the last track is already selected" That seems logical, no? Not sure what you'd expect instead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MW1 Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Actually I also find the screen flashes a little jarring and intrusive whenever they occur. They kind of take you out of the moment - like a sudden in-flight announcement! Personally, I wish Apple would allow them to be disabled globally.

Unfortunately, as far as I know there's no way to disable screen flashes in Logic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between this and what the other DAWs give you, meaning a beep when you do something you shouldn’t, I prefer the flashing. Never liked being disturbed by a sounding alarm when working in an audio software. Blink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dereksamuelreese Posted December 1, 2018 Author Share Posted December 1, 2018 In logic 9 when you reach the end or the top, there isn’t a flash of any kind ? It’s strange to me, and then there is a logic dialog that says something like that key command is used already? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 In logic 9 when you reach the end or the top, there isn’t a flash of any kind ? No, but in Logic Pro X sound alerts were replaced by screen flashing. there is a logic dialog that says something like that key command is used already? We'd need to know the exact wording of the dialog. Here I get only the warning dialogs that the command is not available because the last (or first) track is already selected.

dereksamuelreese Posted December 1, 2018 Author Share Posted December 1, 2018 Hello David, I included the screen shot. There has to be a way to keep the scrolling continuous so i don't get the flash ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Hello David,I included the screen shot. Ok so that's the same message I get. You're pressing a key command to select the track before yet the first track is selected so the command doesn't do anything but a warning tells you why.

dereksamuelreese Posted December 2, 2018 Author Share Posted December 2, 2018 So there’s no way around that ? The flashing of the screen ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ulit Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 In 10.12.6 I can change in the system preferences the notification style for Logic Pro X to 'none'. This avoids the notification boxes but the flashing of the screen seems not to be configurable here. - Uli - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jangus Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 In Accessibility / Audio there is an option to ‘Flash screen when an alert sounds’ that you could uncheck? It’s in 10.12.6 also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
