Re: [Traverso-devel] Splitting Clips With Fades

[Remon]

Hi Ben,

As you became aware allready, fades never get removed really....
Perhaps it should work just like any other audio processing object with a 
AddRemove command.

The trick is that one doesn't alter the state of the object at all, so it can 
be safely inserted again at some later point, that's how un/redo works in 
Traverso.

However you are removing the fades _and_ assign 0 to them....
Me thinks that's a bad idea ;-)

Oh well, I've never been happy about 'resetting' a Fade, it used to be done by 
setting the fade length to something very small...
So you could just do that for now, reset fade_in/out()

And me wonders why he wrote all the docs, ah, it's not uploaded to the website 
I guess. ResourcesManager has it's functions documented, and it states 
getting a clip twice by it's id makes a deep copy...

Regards,

Remon
