midi regions and deleting notes

Why is it when i want to shorten the region, it keeps the midi note going beyond where i shortened it? For example, i grab the end of the region and slide it to the left to shorten the region. It doesn't shorten the midi note it just stays outside of the region. Wouldn't it make sense to shorten the midi note along with the region? Or am i missing something here? As it is now, i shorten the region and then have the grab the midi note and shorten that too.

I totally agree with you on this. This has happend to me so many times, I just want to pull my hair out of my roots. No matter how many times you shorten the region it seems to have a life of its own and either go back to the thing you did not want in the first place, or makes it even longer. This is another reason why I posted my post about Midi. And the reason why Digidesign needs to fix this quick.

A region represents where notes begin. there are many reasons I can think of why not trimming the end of notes when trimming regions is a good thing, and I suspect that they would out-weigh the reasons for. For example: if you want to trim a region, let's say because you're unhappy with the performance that you want to trim off, then you're suggesting that you also want to alter the note that was part of the performance that you are happy with. Why would you want to do that? .

I'm not following you. When you cut off the audio it doesn't have a tail, it just stops. Unless you are using effects in which case i mainly use aux tracks for that so that should take care of that. I guess we just like using midi in two different ways, this way is much faster for me and makes more sense for me.
