Open Beta Version 3.7.0
- Edited
Damir Thanks for testing the other features. I will change the naming on duplicate songs.
DickyDutch So you did not see the dialog asking you if you want to upload or download from the iCloud?
Kevtyler Are actions 1 and 2 up and running yet. I’ve found them in playback settings but I’m not sure how you actually associate them to a button in st3
These actions need to be triggered. You can do that by either changing the assignable buttons to midi mode (in user interface settings) or you can assign these to your pedals.
I think most of the issues with iCloud are caused by the lack of feedback. Everything happens automatically but with larger libraries it takes time and when you don't see what is happening, you are left hanging. So I will try to add something like a progress bar.
Oh and iCloud does prevent data loss from a failed iPad but it does not prevent dataloss from user errors (like deleting a song). So it might be a good idea to create a backup file now and then anyway.

iCloud update, i am noticing no change in my iCloud memory which to me means my iPad is not sending the audio files to iCloud from my iPad which explains why no other devices are receiving them.
The other thing I did is I loaded a new song in text editor with lyrics on my iMac and both my ipad and iPhone received them , but then I deleted the text on iPhone and nothing happened on the other two devices , I tried resyncing the devices but my iMac crashed a number of times while doing this , I have had the iPhone crash while resyncing it so something is definitely not functioning properly , it might be due to the fact no audio songs are not present I don’t have damn computer language understanding so good luck Peter this one appears to be a big bug.
It’s now 4hours since the iCloud process started to populate my iPhone but there are still many missing songs (red).
peter No not the first time I did it but I’ve seen it since when toggling the iCloud button.
I have just switched off and back on the iCloud sync button my iPhone and noticed that all the songs and presumably data have been deleted. Is this normal? I am now waiting to see if all songs will be progressively restored from the cloud over night.
peter Thanks for the hard work and continued improvements!!
(got a virtual tip jar anywhere?)

Hi Peter, has the font or font formatting changed as the lyrics are definitely closer together and maybe a little smaller in both the editor and play view? Text size on both is the same at 22 pt.
Also what’s the difference between increasing default font size and the device size modifier?
DickyDutch If you select the download option, then yes, your local songs are deleted to download everything from the cloud.
Lishy No, font settings have not changed and are the same as before.
Default font size: https://stagetraxx.com/user-guide/settings/#default-font-size
Device size modifier: https://stagetraxx.com/user-guide/settings/#device-size-modifier
You are using the fixed width font in the lower image but not in the upper image.
I think I found the problem why database changes are synced but not files. It seems that some settings I made in the iCloud developer dashboard are only applied to my account and I need to do these settings directly in the app instead. Without these setting file transfers are not possible.
So please wait for the next update. I hope I can release it tomorrow.
And the crash reports I received so far will also be fixed tomorrow.
Thanks so much Peter.
I’m having a few issues with how my pc responds to st3 vs how it responds to touch osc. I’ll be back with a question when I can figure out how to express my issue to you. Many thanks.

I did that with all 3 different devices and nothing works, Peter is aware of it and on it.

Found a bug.
Single Autoplay and playlist all Autoplay does not work anymore , if you play a song then choose the next song when you engage auto play the next song starts then stops, this applies to Autoplay all songs in playlist.

peter DONE marker can be cleared independent of song history
Feedback for later improvement.
Love the feature and the song numbering availability.
But i found the labels confusing on first sighting, also total songs in history to be displayed requires no scrolling to find last song would be very helpful.
Example
Hi Peter I’ve been experimenting with the new midi buttons. They seem to work great and every press and song load song stop action is appearing as it should on my midi monitor. Unfortunately my laptop dmx audio and midi software works in a strange manner and prefers to be stopped and started with the same midi command and so the send midi on stop function isn’t helping me but I’m sure many will love that. If I have a false start on a song, I have to press stop then play then stop for my software to see the start/ stop midi command, but that’s obvioulsly a quirk of my Showmagic software not st3. The action buttons are a great addition, I’d love to be able to use these as volume increment buttons on the channels of my digital desk but that’s beyond me. They will work great for muting the echo or turning on the smoke machine or turning the lights off.
What can I say Peter other than a huge thankyou for your hard work.
Cheers
KeV.
