I think it would be a good idea to remove that function from just the faders as far as SAC is concerned. Ctrl click would be more than ideal for the faders. I'm not hung up on it.. just throwing out my opinion about it.
Exactly.

But, some of us do indeed snap faders to unity in a live scenario. I at least do it often...with no exaggeration, in a festival it may be hundreds of times between monitorworld and FOH that I snap a fader to unity. I tweak my gain in other locations during the course of the show expressly so that this function does what I expect it to...Like many of the more unique functions, if you plan for them to work in the manner they are designed for, they become very useful tools and if you don't they suck.

I'll try to stop whining about it...really

I've been a victim of this and agree with Ira here. Although it's been quite a while (back when I was using SAW to mix live), I still fear the accidental L+R click.

Default Re: Request: Disable Left+Right Click

Building the command reference I discovered that both [Left-Right-Click] and [Ctrl-Left-Click] will snap the fader back to nominal. Bob, would it be a particularly miserable task to allow users to disable the [Left-Right-Click] option and leave the [Ctrl-Left-Click] active? I'm guessing it means code modification in every location that's possible and may not be worth the effort.

Just thought I'd mention it for everyone's benefit.

Much thanks. I think the option to disable while the engine is active would be most helpful.

Ctrl+L+R would be good.

Ira, ctrl-left-click is already an option.
