After talking to Apple support for 2 hours we managed to work out the keyboard shortcuts operation in OS
and how it works with ST3.
My honest feedback, it’s stupid. why?
Firstly there is no idea where these shortcuts actually work in ST3 manual.
They only work in the Lyrics Editor.
Secondly to set the 3 figure gesture in the OS it is buried in SETTINGS, keyboard settings, keyboard shortcuts , Apps, Stage Traxx 3, Name the shortcut, do the three fingers gesture , hit save .
After all that you get a useless feature that’s absolutely not useable only in the lyrics editor where it’s much simpler to hit the play button in bottom left and the time stamp bottom right with a mouse.
What’s more ridiculous you can create a 3 finger gesture to enter the timecode , well that’s even worse of an idea.
So my feedback is , I don’t like it at all, it’s not workable and it’s a waste of time to setup.
I was expecting to be able to dedicate one button for play/stop like space bar and another to hit timestamps like shift, this then creates useable shortcuts.
The stupid Apple operating system gives us shortcuts to all sorts of useless things we don’t even know are there and when you hit two finger key combinations you get things popping up you never need yet I want a simple space bar stop start and a shift key to enter timecode but that useful thing is not available.
This is bad.
The 3 finger gesture does not even work on the normal player , so why bother creating these useless keyboard shortcuts.
Perhaps I am missing something upstairs.
I like SIMPLE.
