Hi Miller,
The shortcut (CTRL+K) still doesn't work to "Disconnect Selection" (in the menu Edit). Maybe I missed something ?
- Selecting 2 connected [t b] => "Disconnect Selection" doesn't work
- Selecting the thread of 2 connected [t b] => "Disconnect Selection"
doesn't work
this never worked (that is: 0.50 has the same behaviour as 0.49, so there is no regression)
Currently the <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>k</kbd> shortcut should disconnect all connections of a single selected object. This it does.
Selecting a single patchcord and disconnecting the two objects can be simply done with the <kbd>Del</kbd> key. But there is probably little harm done, if <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>k</kbd> would *also* handle this case.
Selecting two connected objects is a bit more tricky: what would you expect the shortcut to do?
something as simple as [t f] -> [t f] is *probably* easy: remove
connection between the two objects. (so you get [t f] [t f])
But what if you have:
[f]->[t f]->[t f]->[print] and you select the two [t f] objects.
The current behaviour (when only a single object is selected), would
suggest to remove any connection going in/out of the selection (rather
than inside the selection), so you end up with:
[f] [t f]->[t f] [print]
other people might expect [f]->[t f] [t f]->[print]
and what if you have a loop?
+>[t f]-+

+-[t f]<+
so the current behaviour is intentional. unless/until you can come up with a convincingly consistent behaviour, that is easy to remember :-)
