I was going through the Acid manual and I was reading the section on envelopes. I had just learned that you could copy and paste envelopes. Sensible feature to have, but I only just learned about it now. Anyway, I decided to try it out. I put a pan envelope on one track, added some points, and copied and pasted it to another. But when I pasted it, it got pasted as a volume envelope - with the same points placed. Has this happened to anyone else?

Because you need to ad an pan envelope to the other track and make sure is higlited(meening it is the first, you click on the vol envelope and is the first one then you click on the pan envelope and now pan is the first one)

I see... You have to put the type of envelope you want on the track, then paste. A bit clunky but it works.
Also kind of strange, I right-clicked an envelope point and chose "Select All" from the menu, but then the option to copy is not available. I had to use the "Select All" from the Edit menu to get it to work.
