[Bug]: Section +Add button doesn't do anything #775

Closed

Description

Before reporting

  • I'm on the latest release and the issue still happens.
  • I searched existing issues and didn't find a duplicate.

What happened?

please image

when the song structure is selected during extract. The song then shows all the structure elements as expected. But then the button next to the label SECTION called +add, doesn't do anything when clicked upon. That +add seems to work when no song structure is auto created and the slate is blank.

As a use case, one might not want to create sections/structure manually...too tedious...imaging doing it for super long songs like stairway to heaven or bohemian rhapsody. I'd much rather have structure created automatically, then edit the structure if incorrect. But that opens up a host of problems - edit, save capability, clear, restore.

I think the best option is to not have**+Add**. Just perfect the functionality for automatic structure creation and and ability to clear it using Clear button.

Side notes....

Also I think the label SECTION should be called STRUCTURE. Also if you decide to rename then under Collapse , the section should change to structure as well

maybe a nit, in the label Detect structure, might good to capitalize the S.

Steps to reproduce

    Thanks for the screenshot and the detail. I will look into the +Add button and the Section label for the next release. Let me know if it behaves differently for you in the meantime.

    The +Add button is now greyed out when there is no free space to add a section, and it says why when you hover it. Before, it looked clickable and did nothing.

    I am keeping +Add and the name Sections. Adding a section by hand is useful for fixing a detected structure, and the name matches the rest of the app. Detected sections are still shown automatically, and Clear still removes them.

    This ships in 0.21.0. If something still looks wrong, open a new issue with the steps and I will look.
