macOS: Pinch-zooming using trackpad for zooming in all timeline editors (including Arranger) and in the Sampler waveform display

This was working on Windows - both for touch screens and touchpads - for ages already.

where is vertical scroll zoom it's 2019 pfff

[newtobitwig]

also when will bitwig remember the track size when duplicating a track,such small things make the daw look worse for me. I've emailed the team a couple of times and i always get the automated response saying "thanks for the feature request".
Please someone report to the devs on the beta email about these 2 issues: 1 Vertical Scroll Zoom 2 Remembering the track size(vertically ofc) when duplicating the track.
Here is the email and I'm reporting it too:

Beta 6: Errors when displaying plugins.

yes, already provided a bug report on Arturia CS-80: empty window with VST3, and display errros with VST2.

U-He plugins works fine though...

I had issues with VST3 GUIs not showing in beta 5, have sent some reports in, fingers crossed they sort it for next release!

[Enrize]

Also reported. I've got answer that GUI problems will be fixed in the next Beta. Keep calm

That's a relief! I sent in a couple of reports yesterday but saw Nick said on the FB group today they haven't received any reports of rendering issues for VSTs so not sure whether they missed mine or what

Noticed some random GUI issues with UAD plugins as well. Hopefully the fix is right around the corner.

Same GUI issues with Voltage Modular vst2/vst3 and Shaperbox by Cableguys.
