And I am not accidentally pressing two function keys at the same time, which is a way to enable the smart tool. Has anyone else experienced this? Could this be a bug in the new software? I doubt that both my trackball and keyboard have mechanical issues related to F8. I've looked through my keyboard and accessibility preferences to make sure there is not something else going on, and all looks good. The only way to get out of it is to press some other F key and hope it gets out of the smart tool, or cycle tools with the ESC key. Repeatedly pressing F8 should cycle through the various grabber tools, but instead it stays in the smart tool. This is inconsistent behaviour as sometimes it works as it's supposed to. The same thing happens when I don't use the mouse and use the F8 key only.

However, now half the time it selects the smart tool instead.

Lately, after upgrading to Pro Tools Ultimate in Mac OS Sierra, I will press my mouse button that's assigned to F8 to get my grabber tool. Since I am often using upwards of 100 tracks with a small or mini track height, the smart tool is pretty much unusable for SFX and BG editorial. This is a common way of working for post production editors, as you don't need to move your left hand to change tools. The way I've worked for decades is to assign the function keys to a four button trackball mouse. r/MixClub /r/ListenToThis /r/Music /r/RadioReddit /r/LearnMusic /r/Reasoners /r/AudioPost /r/GameAudio /r/RateMyAudio /r/StudioPorn /r/SFXLibrariesĪnyone else experience being locked in the smart tool?
