From version 12.0.450 or so something fundamentally changed and I just want to point to it and ask you if you could change that back - because it makes working much harder. Let me explain a bit:

I import some music albums. Most have weird tags so I decide to make them complete and correct. Some albums have no track number per track. Often I go and set the track numbers manually. Before I had to click once or twice onto the first track-no field to open it for manual change. Since some time I have to click several times until it opens up. A bit annoying but not such a problem. Then I start with track 1. I enter '1' and hit the 'down arrow' key, then '2' and so on - if I did that in a very quick rhythm I got all the numbers filled into the track number fields correctly. Since some time the input buffer seems to get cleared by a program command and I get probably '1' and '5' filled in and the rest stays blank. If I do it very very slowly and wait for every number showing up I can do the input sequence correctly. But it needs 10 times of the time I had to spend before.

Can't you just leave the input buffer queue untouched?

Thanks for a response

Try a slow double click.

I'm not sure I understand.

I start editing Track #, and press 1, down, 2, down, 3, down, etc.  It allows me to quickly set all the track numbers.  Is this different than what you're seeing?

You might also look at Library Tools > Fill Track # From List Order

Matt, I'm seeing the same here if I hit the keys 'real rapid'...

1-↓-2-↓-3-↓-4-↓-5-↓-6-↓-7-↓-8-↓-9-↓-

I'm lucky if two of the values are applied, usually 1 and 8.
It's kind of a moot point because I'd never actually do this, I'd use the 'fill track numbers from list order' tool.
I can reproduce the behaviour Martin describes though, fwiw.

Matt,

you have a point... 

thanks for the hint, I never used that function 'from the list order'

thanks

but the problem stays in general - you delete the input buffer queue after accepting one input - this can lead to some strange behaviour

anyway, thanks for your hint, appreciate your time
Martin
