Summary | 0000892: Drag and dropping samples into the sampler doesn't work. | ||||
Description | Previously dropping sample files (or just any file really) would load it. Now it does nothing. This was a pretty crucial part of my workflow. | ||||

Has the bug occurred in previous versions? | No | ||||
Tested code revision (in case you know it) | |||||
Cannot reproduce this. Have 1.26.07.00 and loading sample files by drag'n'drop them works as expected. Works with Windows 7 64-bit, Windows 8.1 64-bit and Windows 10 64-bit. |
|
Works just fine here as well. Where do you drag the files from? From OpenMPT's internal tree view or from Explorer? Note that drag&drop between explorer and OpenMPT (or any other application) does not work if you run OpenMPT with administrator privileges (e.g. because of troublesome plugins). |
|
It never works from Explorer, if OpenMPT is actually run as Administrator, because the way the Explorer process works, it always runs as the current user, except if you're logged in with the Administrator account itself. I have this non-working drag'n'drop, when I explicitely run Notepad++ as Administrator for example. In that case, Explorer runs in User mode, while Notepad++ runs as Administrator. They are not compatible in this case for drag'n'drop operations. The same goes for OpenMPT and a lot other applications. |
|
After a little more mucking around, I think I've found the problem- dragging and dropping sample files is somehow treating them "as a module".... In the sense that if you started with a blank MDI (no modules open) and drop in a sample, it would create a new module for you with just that sample loaded. When I'm dropping stuff into the sampler, it's trying to load it in that manner instead of just as a sample for some reason. The reason it was previously doing "nothing" was because I was dropping raw PCM into the sampler- something that cannot be loaded "as a module." I tried dropping a WAV into the sampler and it loaded it "as a module" (created a new module with one sample). Are you guys experiencing this too? |
|
Did you actually drop it onto the waveform area on the Samples tab or just somewhere on the OpenMPT window? If you drop it outside the waveform area, a new module will be created (if the file is actually readable). Also would be nice to have a sample raw PCM file. |
|
I indeed did drop it into the waveform area. As for a sample raw PCM file, it doesn't really matter, you can just drop a jpeg or something. |
|
Please provide an example file to reproduce the problem with. Dropping a WAV file in the black sample area should load it as a normal sample. Dropping a WAV file anywhere else should load it as a module. Dropping a module on the black sample area should load it as a module in the tree view for sample extraction. |
|
Here's a video of the bug in action. Basically, dragging and dropping alternately does nothing and opens a sample file as a module. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yujqOkQ0hE I should have noted earlier- I'm using the latest Win 10 insider preview: Build 14965. That might be it really. |
|
Sounds to me like it might be the reason. I'll see later if I can upgrade my Win10 VM to the latest insider build and reproduce it there. Maybe you can give some feedback to Microsoft through that start menu thingy that Drag&Drop appears to be broken in this build? |
|
Is this still an issue? I still cannot reproduce it on Windows 10. |
|
Hi, I've made some headway on this issue. The bug is totally resolved if I override the scaling options and (what seems to be) perform no scaling. I have a high DPI monitor so I typically use 175% scaling in the Windows settings.[img]https://i.sli.mg/26QSpo.png[/img]This makes drag 'n drop work again, however this has the unintended side effect of making everything really small and almost unusable:[img]https://i.sli.mg/bAZk1T.png[/img]This implies either you guys maybe changed the drop rectangles a while ago, or Windows updated the OS and broke it, since it did previously work like normal. |
|
My images didn't embed, so here are their URLs:https://i.sli.mg/26QSpo.pnghttps://i.sli.mg/bAZk1T.png |
|
There is no such thing as a "drop rectangle" here - the entire sample editor area is a drop target. But Microsoft is really good at breaking scaling options, so you could maybe try to submit some feedback (which I think was possible through the start menu when you're an insider?)
By "everything" you really just mean the icons, right? Those will hopefully be fixed soon for high-DPI devices, but as far as I'm aware (0000627), there is nothing else that should keep you from using an unscaled high-DPI version of OpenMPT, unless you are using VST plugins (we cannot do anything in that case, since plugins draw their own UI). The pattern font can be enlarged in the settings dialog. |
|
Is this still an issue? I just installed the latest updates on my Windows 10 VM and still cannot reproduce this. Theoretically I'm signed up for insider builds but I think it doesn't download those for some reason. |
|
I also have a similar issue. I've noticed that .wav files are treated as folders, as can be enabled in tree view. However, it doesn't happen in v1.26.08, notice the .wav files listed. Maybe it's a new feature (I've not searched yet) |
|
This has nothing to do with the problem in this issue at all and is just a temporary issue that will be resolved soon. |
|
http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/2017-03-0709-51-05.php OpenMPT says that flac format is not supported. |
|
How/where did you try to load the file? This message indicates that OpenMPT tried to load the file as a module, and not into a sample slot. |
|
I installed to Windows 10 Creators Update and the problem can still not be reproduced. |
|
I ended up doing a fresh install of Windows and not getting back on the insider program, and it's all working like usual now so I think it was just some Windows bug. I got stuck on a particularly nasty/buggy build and it was taking forever for them to deploy an update for me to get off it, so that's why I reformatted. I think it's safe to say this issue can be closed. |
|
Thanks for the feedback! |
