    Edius Effects locked in timeline

    Hi!

    I've been fighting this problem before but can't remember how to solve it. Working with Edius 8.3, suddenly can't add any effects, crossfades, audio crossfades. It just shows X when I try to drag an effect on a clip. What setting do I have on/off. Went to the User setting but could figure it out. Give me a hand fellas...thanks!

    in could be that an existing EDIUS properties panel is open or the titler?

    see if anything is minimized on the taskbar

        there is no need to reinstall

        start a new project and test, if it works, something is set wrong in the problem project

          yeah, the problem is the same when trying to add a clip to the time..it won't let me drag & drop. i know it's some kinda lock button somewhere, but can't figure it out.

            is your effects panel in folder view or effects view

            if folder view, you need to click the name of the effect and then drag, because if you click and drag the blue highlighted area, you get the x

            this is a known bug

            all of the highlighted area should be drag-able

            I assume you use EDIUS8?

              is the track expand, (triangle on track-header) ??
              can you see the Audio waveform ??

              drag yo the audio-effect to the "visible audio-part" from the track ??

                waveform is visible, i can see the effect but there's "X" next to the clip or effect. maybe is a track based problem..looks like the clips/effect is trying to drop on the timeline but nothing happens.

                          I have the same problem when using a 4k Monitor in 8.3, when I click on the bin, effects tab nothing happens. I had to go back to a HD monitor. Grassvalley said that Edius 8 interface was optimized for a 4k monitor, that was the reason I bought a 4k monitor, but I have been having all kinds of problems, especially with the movement of the mouse in 8.2 now more problems in 8.3.

                              The scaling did not matter, 100% or more. As was mentioned in another thread Edius is not quite ready for 4k monitors stay with the HD monitors. Please note I am using Windows 10 Pro the Anniversary Edition.
