Title: GUI Problem - sub menus disapaer on mouse movement
Post by: sparki on August 06, 2013, 06:05:28 pm
all submenus are disapearing as soon as i move my mouse, so theres no chance to do some "mousework". this happens to all submenus, so simple things like "save" can only be done on the spark controller. restarting spark or the daw (FL) doesnt solve the problem.
this strange behavior is new since 1.7 and seems to happen randomly but quite often and just as vst in fl-studio. standalone its fine.

at first, thanks for the great response here...
i found the reason for this bug, so this is maybe interessting for the arturia staff and something to handle for future versions.

in fl-studio you can "detach" windows, for example to move them to a second screen. i usually run spark in a detached window on my second screen and thats the reason.
if spark is running "detached" then the submenus wont work (its impossible to route mixer tracks this way). you can open a sub menu, but as soon if you move the mouse its gone. this problem comes with spark 1.7, in former versions i never experienced this problem.

Hi Sparki,

We tried to reproduce this in the office but didn't manage to. What OS and what version of FL are you using?
