of the scroll sliders, and moved it to one of its extreme po-

sitions.

Zooming: Below the vertical scrollbar and right beside

the horizontal scrollbar you find two hatched fields. These

fields are used for vertical respectively horizontal zooming

and are therefore referred to as telescopes. Clicking the

left, smaller side of the telescope symbol reduces the size

of the objects in the display, allowing you to see more ob-

jects in the same space (zoom out) and clicking the right,

larger side enlarges the objects in the display (zoom in).

The vertical telescope is for vertical zooming (Zoom Verti-

cal In/Out, default assignment: ctrl page up/ctrl page

down), while the one with the horizontal arrow handles

horizontal enlargement (Zoom Horizontal In/Out, default

assignment page up/page down). In some windows, only

one telescope is available, and this then handles both hor-

izontal and vertical zooming at once.

Whike “zooming”, the top left selected object is kept in the

visible region, whenever possible.

Zooming Selectively: Zooming In On One Section of the

Screen: To enlarge a section of the screen to the size of the

whole window use the magnifying glass tool to drag a

“rubber band” over the section you want. You can do this

more than once.

Reverting to the Previous Zoom Setting: Click on the back-

ground with the magnifying glass. This will return the

zoom to the original setting, by backtracking through the

previous steps.

You can call up the magnifying glass functions with any

other tool (apart from the pencil) by holding down alt. The

pointer will still look like the previous tool, but if you “rub-

berband” with it, it will behave like the magnifying glass.

Window Elements: Adjusting the Size of the Window Ele-

ments: If you move the mouse over the top left corner of

the arrange area the mouse pointer turns into a crosshair.

By dragging it, you can now adjust the size of the bar ruler,

arrange area, track list, and transport buttons. You can

also adjust the window elements in the Score, Drum and

Matrix Editors using the same method.

Concealing/Revealing the Transport Functions: Use View >

Transport to display or remove the transport panel but-

range windows. The number of buttons and indicators de-
