I've been getting thse weird dialog window behaviors and keep forgetting to report them. For example, when I click on the key signature button to open up the Key Signature dialog window, single-clicking on the OK button has no effect unless I actually grab and move the window some! Hitting [Enter] does always work. Double-clicking works but it opens up the notation window! Freaky!

First which version of PT?

But on your specific example above I can get similar behavior (PT 2014) because PT is busy actually looking at the song data and making options for/deciding "does he want to up or down transpose" and how far (up 7 down 5, etc.)

On a typical 3 minute'ish rock song I went from default "C" to "G" and it was instantaneous but when I tried to go BACK to "C" even on my relatively screaming PC took about 6-8 seconds before I got control of the panel again to click "OK." I could see PT CPU go up - it was busy. This "busy'ness" is not constant however, sometimes PT thinks longer than other times.

Although, IF I double CLICK while it's busy the "OK" button just happens to be situated right between the boundaries of tracks 3 and 4. If I double click between ANY tracks (when mouse course changes to a up-down arrow for resizing track height) it opens the lower tracks Notation window! I bet yours open track 4 notation window?

Not saying it should, I NEVER knew it did that (handy but not sure it's suppose to either so you may have something there)

EDIT

Just checked in RB (2015/build6) same behavior and if lower track (next track down) is an Audio track it opens the Audio edit window, if nothing else "cool"

Is this yet another thing everyone knew except me?

PT2014. I use PT almost exclusively for all of my MIDI editing. As soon as 2015 comes out, I'll get it.

Using the [Enter] key gets an instant "OK" response, and grabbing the window and moving it even a smidgen returns normal response operation to the window. I've also experienced these behaviors during copy/paste dialog displays.

So far, it appears that this bug may have been exterminated in PT2015.
