Markers and the snap grid
SONAR has a collection of features you can use to simplify and speed the
work you do arranging your projects. Here are a few of the most important
things you can do:
• Show gridlines on measure boundaries in the Track view.
• Define and use the snap grid to make drag-and-drop editing more
accurate.
• Create markers to identify and work with key time points in your project.

Showing Gridlines
Displaying gridlines, or vertical rules, in the Clips pane of the Track view
makes it easy to see at a glance how clips align with each other, how they
align with measure boundaries, and when they start and end.
To Show or Hide Gridlines
1. Right-click in the Clips pane and choose View-Options from the popup
menu.
