Hi Unify Support,
When I use the Unify keyboard with a mouse I can:
Click on a key, mouse down then drag away, off the keyboard, and the key continues to play
When I move the cursor back to the keyboard from down-screen to another key I can trigger that key.
However if I try the same sequence of actions only from up-screen: nothing happens.
Does that make sense?
It would be nice if the from-up-screen mouse over triggered the keys as well.
Regards,
Peter

On my PC at least, clicking on a key, then dragging up and back down does trigger another note, but at reduced volume. This is because the on-screen keyboard simulates key velocity according to the distance from the top of the key to the click-point (or in this case, the drag-in point).
Please explain how you would use this feature.
Unify's on-screen keyboard was only originally only for display of input MIDI notes (e.g., for John's YouTube videos); it didn't respond to mouse clicks at all. I added the click-ability to provide a quick way to test the program when no external MIDI keyboard was available. I never meant it to be used to actually play notes.

Hi Shane,
I am in the middle of upgrading my system disk and my PC is a bit non-functional midi-wise. That's why I was using the on screen keyboard.
Your explanation resolves my issues.
Thanks for that,
Peter
