Track view
View reference
The Navigator pane has a green rectangle in it that is an outline of what the Clips pane is currently
displaying. If you drag the center of the rectangle around in the pane, it scrolls the Clips pane to the
same view. You can drag any of the nodes on the rectangle to zoom the Clips pane in or out. If you
click in the Navigator pane, the left border of the rectangle jumps to the spot you clicked, and scrolls
the Clips pane to that spot also. If you hold down the CTRL key while you click, the Now time jumps
to that spot.

SONAR and screen readers for vision impaired users
SONAR has a special Accessibility Mode which can be helpful for vision impaired users when
working with screen readers (Window-Eyes, JAWS, etc.). The Accessibility Mode is enabled by
adding a key to the Windows Registry (WARNING: only do this if you are comfortable with editing
the Windows registry; you may want to back up the registry first), and allows screen readers to
receive various information from SONAR that may otherwise not be displayed on the screen
(names, values, etc.).
The key is:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cakewalk Music Software\SONAR Producer\X2
The Value is:
AccessibilityMode
It is a DWORD. Value can be 0, 1, 2 or 3:
0 - no accessibility (default)
1 - put the access string in the Track view's caption
2 - put the access string in the CWACCESS window
3 - put the access string in the CWACCESS window and make this window visible
Note: If you use SONAR Studio or Essential, substitute “Producer” with “Studio” or “Essential”.
