Creating a Favorites menu
The Favorites item on the File menu allows you to assemble a list of files
that you want to be able to open quickly – a library if you will.
• To add a file to the list, make sure its window is active and select “Add current
document” from the Favorites-Functions submenu.
• To open a file from the list, select it.
• To clear the whole list, select Clear List from the Favorites–Functions submenu.
• To update the list so that it only lists files that actually still exist in the specified lo-
cations on your hard disk(s), select Validate List from the Favorites–Functions
submenu.
Files that can’t be found are removed.
Customizable key/MIDI commands
In addition to the fixed key commands for selecting from menus, etc., there
are a number of operations for which you can set up your own commands.
You can do this in two ways:
• By specifying a key sequence – a sequence of between one to three keys
that must be pressed in a certain order to invoke the operation.
• By specifying a MIDI command.
You need a MIDI controller device (e.g. a MIDI keyboard or a dedicated controller device)
connected to your PC via a MIDI interface for this to work.
