    I may decide to extend the “hide tracks in group” track option to the mixer as well. Normally though it is the bottom track in a chain that you want to see in the mixer, rather than the parent group tracks.

    Perhaps an option to hide a selected track or selected tracks might be better.

    I wonder….would it not be possible to add a slider to the mixer when dragging it up (embedded) so that one could scroll up to see more of it, without needing to drag it too far up the screen?

    Yes.

    Great. 🙂

    what about a simple function like ctrl+g like in the sequencer view. Where everything is hidden below the track you press ctrl+g on

    The “hide tracks in group” option now also hides the mixer strips. Works nicely. Provides greater consistency between the tracks region and the mixer.

    Frits unless I am missing something here, can that not already be done by just right clicking on a group track in the mixer and choosing the “Hide tracks in group” option, is that not the same thing? Doing this already hides the mixer strips. It certainly minimizes them to tiny strips. If this recent implementation is different, how does it differ?

    Also I just noticed something in Podium. If you select the “Hide tracks in group” option, the first time you enable it only a single group track will be visible in the arrangement view.

    So all child tracks are totally hidden.

    But if you click on the cross hair (on the group track) to see all the tracks again and then click on the cross hair again to hide the tracks the hidden tracks will be seen as thin strips below the group track. So in a way, only partially hidden.

    Why is the hiding process different when using the the cross hair or the “hide tracks in group” options?

    Cheers.

    Tracks within a group can be either minimized (collapsed) or hidden completely. Pressing G will expand/collapse, while pressing Ctrl+G will expand/hide the tracks completely. Likewise, clicking the +/- button will expand/collapse, and Ctrl+Clicking the button will expand/hide. Hiding tracks has so far only been implemented in the tracks region, while the mixer would show hidden tracks as collapsed. The mixer now hides the strips completely if the group is hidden, so the behaviour is consistent between the tracks region and the mixer.

    That’s much clearer now, thanks! 🙂

    I have created a preview topic about the mixer improvements I’m working on:
