First, I'm not a cake talking user; I use jSOnar. However, perhaps you need to select the track first, then select from and through?


Just my two cents.

Hello Richard,

1.Are you certain that CT is configured correctly, all toolbars, screen resolution, windows color scheme etc? Read the setting up guides in the CT folders in documents if you are not sure.

2.Try using f9 and f10 to mark from and through, does that make a difference? Go to bar 10, press f9 to mark from, then press number 2 on the numbers row to jump 2 bars forward to bar 12 (the beginning of it) then press f10 to mark the through point. Then press ctrl plus enter. Does it still highlight the entire track?

3.If you are working with MIDI data only, what happens if you just press the delete key (the one next to the insert and end keys in the center cluster of keys)?

4.Have you tried selecting things in another project? Does that work?

5.Are you sure that you are in the custom CakeTalking tab?

6.Has your sighted friend messed with items on the screen in Sonar’s windows?

7.Finally, and I should have probably asked this first, what version of JAWS and Windows are you using?

Sorry for all the questions, but the more info we have, the better we can assist you and help you troubleshoot the issue.

HTH, DJX

Hi all

Hopefully you can help with this:

I am trying to remove a few bars from the middle of a recording.  I seem to be having a few anomalies.

Here’s what I am doing:

1 I am setting the from and through, for example, pressing shift and f9, typing numbers 10 into in the from tab.  Tab once to the through tab and typing 12.  So my from and through is bar 10 to bar 12.

2 pressing control enter to select the track.  Jaws reads the track name and says I have selected from bar 10 to bar 12.  I have a sighted friend with me and he said that although jaws states that the track has been selected from bar 10 to bar 12 on the screen he can see that the entire track has been selected.

3 I proceed with pressing control delete which gives a number of options and allows me to tick the option to delete the whole clip and not just the content.

4 I end up deleting the full track instead of the piece I have selected.

I am not sure what to do next.  Any advice?

Richard
