Scrolling with a Scroll Wheel

use the scroll wheel to scroll vertically or hori-
zontally in any Pro Tools window that has a
scroll bar (such as the MIDI Event List).
To scroll a Pro Tools window vertically:
1 Place the mouse over the window you want to
scroll (for example, in the Edit window you
might want to scroll either the track display or
the Region List).
2 Scroll the scroll wheel up or down to scroll the
window up or down.
To scroll a Pro Tools window horizontally:
1 Place the mouse over the window you want to
scroll (for example, in the Edit window you
might want to scroll either the track display or
the Region List).
2 Shift-scroll the scroll wheel up or down to
scroll the window to the left or right.
Auto-Scrolling Tracks in the
Mix and Edit Windows
If you are working with more tracks than can be
displayed at one time in the Mix or Edit win-
dows, you can select a track in one window and
Pro Tools will automatically scroll to that track
in both windows.
To auto-scroll the Mix and Edit windows to show a
track, do one of the following:
 In the Track List, Right-click the track name
and select Scroll Into View.
– or –
 In the Track List, Control-click (Mac) the track
name and select Scroll Into View.
The track becomes selected, and the Mix and
Edit windows both scroll to display the selected
track.
Navigating to Tracks Using Track
Position Numbers
With Track Number View enabled, each track is
assigned a number corresponding to its position
in the Mix and Edit Windows. You can scroll di-
rectly to any track by its positional number.
To navigate directly to any track using Track
Position Numbers:
1 Choose View > Track Number.
2 Choose Track > Scroll to Track.
3 In the Scroll To Track dialog, enter the Track
Number for the track you want to view.
4 Click OK.
The track is selected, and the windows scroll as
follows:
• The Edit window tracks scroll to bring the se-
lected track as close to the top as possible.
• The Mix window tracks scroll to bring the se-
lected track as close to the left as possible.
When tracks are reordered, Track Position
Numbers are reassigned to keep them in nu-
merical sequence.
