Chunks should remain existent after being delinked from a trail/resonance

Open kayaulai opened this issue 5 months ago • 1 comments

Background As of now, delinking any chunk from a trail/resonance, i.e. deleting the track/rez, will delete the chunk itself, even if the chunk itself used to be a blank chunk. This will create many problems for people who have annotated lots of blank chunks, and then just accidentally put a blank chunk into a trail.

In fact, I believe it would be necessary to remove the chunk-deleting behaviour of delinking in order to properly implement layers; for there to be trail layers, a chunk shouldn't be inextricably associated with a single track.

What to do So I propose that:

  • Executing Remove link on a chunk-track should remove the link ONLY, leaving the chunk intact
  • The same goes for delete key.
  • Delete key for blank chunks should delete the chunk itself, as always.

Additional info Consider deleting the chunk IF it is a "low value" trail or resonance (kind of like CTRL-z); see
