Updating Window
Configurations
After you recall a stored Window Configuration,
you can make changes to the window layout and
window settings, and then update the stored Win-
dow Configuration with your changes. You can do
this manually, or you can have Pro Tools automat-
ically update the active configuration.
To manually update a Window Configuration, do
one of the following:
Choose Window > Configurations > Update Ac-
tive Configuration
. The active Window Config-
uration updates to include any changes to its
included properties (Window Layout and Win-
dow Display Settings).
From the Window Configuration List pop-up
menu, choose
Update <Name>. The selected
Window Configuration updates with any
changes to its included properties.
To have Pro Tools automatically update the active
Window Configuration, do one of the following:
Select Window > Configurations > Auto-Update
Active Configuration
.
From the Window Configuration List pop-up
menu, select
Auto-Update Active Configuration.
When
Auto-Update Active Configuration is
selected, the active Window Configuration
updates with every change to the Window Layout
and Window Display Settings.
Window Configurations that do not include Win-
dow Layout and only store Window Display Set-
tings cannot be made active and thus won't auto-
matically update. If you want to update a Window
Configuration with changes to the Window Dis-
play Settings (such as the width of the Clip List in
the Edit window), use the
Update command in the
Window Configuration List.
Clearing Window Configurations
Clearing a window configuration removes it and
its associated slot number while keeping the slot
numbers of other window configurations un-
changed. The
Clear command is useful if you want
to insert another configuration in the same slot.
To clear a Window Configuration:
1 In the Window Configuration List, select the
Window Configuration you want to clear.
2 From the Window Configuration List pop-up
menu, select
Clear <Name>.
Deleting Window Configurations
Deleting a Window Configuration removes it and
its slot number, and renumbers any subsequent
Window Configurations.
To delete a Window Configuration:
1 In the Window Configuration List, select the
Window Configuration you want to delete.
2 From the Window Configuration List pop-up
menu, select
Delete <Name>.
To delete all Window Configurations:
From the Window Configuration List pop-up
menu, select
Delete All.
