Sample preview in Open Dialog

Forums

Hello!
A request from me.

I would like to be able to preview a sample in the open dialog just by highlighting a file. Similar to how it is done in Hydrogen. However, in Hydrogen you necessarily have to click the file to hear a preview. Would be good to be able to just move the selection with an arrow on your keyboard and hear the preview without having to click it. In other words, hear preview on file select.

This would help a lot, since currently if I am searching for a sample among hundreds, it is very tough. Usually I have to go for Hydrogen to do that and then remember filename and load into Qtractor.

Cheers!

Louigi.

yeah, that's quite an old request, i confess... i'll see what i can do ;)

meanwhile, use the files window, open and add multiple files there (context menu/add files...) and then (double-)click to play as usual.

cheers
