Lets say i'm editing cycle number 4. Well there seems to be no easy way of hearing what cycle 4 actually sounds like, as the WTPOS control in the OSC doesn't actually let you know when you have selected the exact position you need, so you may think you're editing cycle 4, but when you copy cycle 4 into another OSC, it sounds a bit different.
This is actually becoming a really big issue for me.

Oh and i'm still hoping for the paste / replace cycle which i requested before, as that is what i would expect a paste to do.
At the moment, selecting a cycle and pasting just adds an extra cycle to the table, which seems illogical to me.
You might want to have a look at the newest version 2.2.1 that was just released. It adds several of the things that you had asked for:

The bug with changing octave keys is still present in 2.2.3

Hi there. I did some deep dive here and came to the conclusion that this is not really solvalble unfortunately. Why: playing a synth with your pc keyboard is handled by the DAW. Also the mapping of the keyboard to notes / octaves is set up in the DAW. The plugin only receives midi note messages finally. Now when you select the plugin window it grabs keyboard control in order to handle keboard shortcuts that are needed e.g. for the wavetabled editor (cut + paste, delete ...). The only thing that I can do is to send midi messages for a standard key mapping - not knowing what was set up in the DAW.

I did some tests with other plugins and did not find one that can compensate around that. Most plugins just ignore other keyboard input when they are focused and do not react to pc keyboard notes at all.

Or do you by chance know a plugin that is able to handle this as expected?

Well, I never experienced this behavior with other VSTs, tried so far with Absynth 5 and Air Hybrid 3
It's really easy to reproduce:
1. Open Bitwig Studio
2. Drop Vaporizer to a new track
3. Click Caps Lock (this turns on keyboard control)
4. Hit X twice - this increases Octaves by 2
5. Play with your keyboard, for example by pressing D and G kwyboard keys
Result - all works fine except when you touch Vaporizer's UI control - then the same keys (D and G) are suddenly shifted by something like 1 octave

I did some quick test with Hybrid 3 and yes, this plugin does not seem to grap keyboard control at all. So the DAW is just continuing to send pc keyboard input to the plugin as midi input. But this only works for plugins that shall not react to keyboard shortcuts / hot keys.

But in Absynth 5 I see the same behavior as with many other plugins e.g. Serum: you can play on the pc keyboard but once you click on a UI control the plugin grabs keyboard control completly and the pc keyboard does not produce midi anymore.

The problem is not with grabbing the focus of the keyboard. The issue is when focus is grabbed the plugin starts to play different notes than it should - you can even see different highlighted keyboard keys on the plugin keyboard

Hi there. Biggest issue is that we do not have a Win7 machine here for testing :hihi:
Did you try to install the demo? What happens?

This is internally prepared. Only the UI part is missing and it is on top of the backlog for next update.
YOU ARE AN ANGEL. Some of these presets are gorgeous. I can already tell this is going to be a supremely valuable purchase for me.
This is available now in version 2.3.2. Hope you like it.
