Fairlight - Inspector always expands all plugin options
Posted: Tue Dec 29, 2020 7:15 amOn the Fairlight page in the inspector (clip or track) under Effects, any time an effect it added, deleted, or the Inspector is opened, every plugin is shown with all options expanded.
Meaning instead of getting a nice and neat overview of plugins that one can manipulate, open the GUI for, or similar, you first have to close all the expanded variables to get to the one in question.
It sounds trivial until you have a few tracks or clips with some plugins containing many variables, in which case it really slows things down and pulls you out of your flow. Pretty much every plugin I've tried has at least a page and a half or more of variables.
Any change to the page or the plugins results in all variables for all plugins expanding in the view.
It would be a lot nicer if the Inspector simply remembered the last state and preserved that - plugins that were "open" showing all variables would be open, those that were "closed" would stay closed.
