GRID PROBLEM

[Shintylla]

Hi community,
I've been using Hollyhock 2 for a couple days working on building patch with a grid to get automated recording and loop. This is what I'd like to get:
triggering a recording using the record patch and play the recording in the next grid section.
What I have built:
-grid
-2 racks : 1st with the 16 pads
-2nd with the 1st rack in the audio in and the recording patch

But I need some help:
1.I didn't find on the manual how to delete racks from the grid(not from the WS).
I cannot save preset with the preset saving instructions on the H2 manual: hold S button and press the present n° in the preset grid. But it doesnt work(I'm running Usine on OSX)
I found some troubles using the grid:
2.I'm trying to record with RECORD AUDIO patch triggering the rec button through automation written in STEP curve mode. The problem is that I can start the record but it won't stop in the next grid section even with the correct automation.
3.When I add an automation curve in curves contestual menu in the curves tab it doesn't appear until I click on the relative rack on the grid, doing so it refreshes.
4.If I select 2 or more at.curves, how can I select the one I want to be edited(how can I bring it to front?) I didn't find how.
5.I start the grid(pressing space bar), the record patch starts to record(with the triggered rec button), but when I stop the session(pressing space bar) before it goes to stop I refresh the record patch to get ready for a new try, I restart the grid from the beginning the grid using the button and I make a new try, but the recorder doesn't start record( the rec button does not get active).
I know it is probable I'm making some mistakes or missing something, but I like Usine and I would like to get these obstacles surpassed.
Thanks

1.I didn't find on the manual how to delete racks from the grid(not from the WS).

When you select the element in the grid, you will see it on the left hand contextual menu.

Ok,
I did some extra tweaking and found some solution by myself:
1. Thanks sephult
2. Sometimes it works sometimes not. I cannot find why. Maybe I'm doing something wrong
3. It is as I previously told. I do not refresh if I don't click on the rack on the grid again. So the interface loads the newly selected automation parameter in the curves tab
4. Contestual menu. Thanks sephult
5. I don't know why sometimes it happens.

2. I am not 100% sure, but try dragging the grid element across the boundary of the next step. Each time it activates or deactivates the rack, so quite possibly the activation or reactivation is restarting your record button. I have a problem with doing the rack activation on things as well.

3. Maybe this is a bug or something to report?
4. If you select the grid element, the right contextual menu has options to which automation you want to show/select. Try this to bring forward what you want to edit.
5. Maybe an activation problem again.

I have several issues with the grid as well that I just addressed, to me this is an essential part of a DAW. I assume that things will be worked out on upcoming builds as they are brought to light and presented as bug reports or suggestions by more people.

Make sure if you find a bug to report it. Go to About-Contact & Support and the bug report system is there.

Can you provide a simple example reproducing the problem please?

It seems it doesn't happen anymore. I think it is my mistake, I was running the 0.61 vs..I'll tell you if something happen again.
Thx
