Currently got JS working and things are going ok but how do I uncross things that have a red cross (or x to be more precise)...I've just installed a china crash at the begining of a bar and now it's been x'd out and won't play,
what's the solution please or is there a vid explaining this.
I think it's something to do with wether a fill is playing or not but the more I try stuff the more I'm wrecking what I've done so far..

cheers, Kevin

sorry to be here asking , it just takes so long to try and find this in the manual..wanna get on..

Hover over the crossed out note. The status line will tell you what is preventing it from being played.

Thank you kind sir..presumably that means I need to delete the part in the fill that is preventing it from playing..

You should also be able to force the hit. Try right clicking on it.

Excellent, thank you! Sounds much quicker than deleting the part, and definitely than composing something else.

Just a quick question, is something automatically deleted When you force the hit, or is the "humanism" requirement (i.e, the physical limitations of what 2 arms/2 feet can do) bypassed in that one instance?

I can't force anything, If I right click on a x'd out part the only option I get is..select all, all other options are greyed out..thanks for the help,

best, Kevin

Highlight the note in the bar editor and turn the Priority knob all the way left.

That's great to know, thanks from me too.

How do people learn this kind of thing? Another way of asking: how does a user troubleshoot? If it's not in the manual, are the only ways to: 1) come here and depend on the kindness of strangers? ... , or 2) randomly button push/knob turn/slider slide at random?

Or is there a knowledge base somewhere that I should know about? (I'm always the last to know things! :lol:)

Thanks -

I know I sound like a parrot because I keep repeating this..

We need an in depth 2hour long video that goes into detail on everything possible...I wouldn't care if it was 4 hours long..it would be my favourite vid!!
