Update NIP's to track and intensity Cue only

See if this one goes out.....

Is there a simple way to track Nip's and cue only intensity?

Right now i hit all NP's and update track, then update cue only.

If this is the only way to handle an update i suggest some sort of syntax to simplify the process.

maybe Shift [Cue Only/Track]

Ed,

I write a macro ({Intensity}[Update][CueOnly][Enter] [Update][Enter]) for this, but you're absolutely right, it would be much better if there was a native way to accomplish it.  I think that's been asked for elsewhere... but in case it hasn't, add my vote.

Yep, we can add that as a modifier.  I assume it is sufficient to make the tile "Intensity Cue Only" - and then the behavior of NPs driven by the track/cue only setting or command line override?

that would be brillant.

two thoughts though:
-can i assume, that in Setup > Desk > Record Defaults (right column) the new modifier would get its own box for an Update default setting?
-when you add a modifier Intensity Cue Only, then this is something that has an effect in Tracking Mode only, because in Cue Only mode, Intensity is already Cue Only. so if for Delete/Copy/Move/Record-reasons (basically everything but Update) i want to stay in Cue Only mode, then this new modifier has no effect. so i'm not sure, if for this new thing to help a lot of people, it should either be an additional third mode (tracking, cueonly, ICONIT(int cue only nonInt tracking) ), or there should be two new modifier tiles: "ICO" and "NIT". i guess the latter would be easier to implement and still help people working in tracking as well as in cueOnly mode...

I think Ann is on target.  If you are in cue only and you wish to track Np's you would have to use [cue only/track] so modifying Int cue only works in either mode.

so the syntax would be in cue only mode

[update] {int cue only} [Track]

A modifier sounds like the most sensible solution to me.

This would be very helpful!
