There are several ways of assigning figures to keys:
3.4.1. Manual Assignment
To assign a figure to a key of the PC or the MIDI keyboard it has to be selected: Right-
click on its icon in the Figure Table (Fig.17). Then click “Assign Figure”. A message will
be displayed until a key was pressed. If this key is already assigned to another figure,
a warning will be displayed.
3.4.2. Assignment by Drag and Drop to the Live Window
This way of assignment is quite easy, because drag-and-drop can be used.
First open the Live Window (Fig.18). It is possible to drag-and-drop the very figures to
the key-spaces in the live window, assigning the figure to that key this way.
The assignment of figures to keys is saved automatically to a file named “key.ord”
within the same folder as the figures. Changes of the assignments are possible by
simple re-assignment. Duplicate assignments are possible (several keys for the same
figure, but not the other way round). To call several figures with one key, “Showparts”
can be used (more about this in the main manual).

(red arrows). The selected figure has a red square.
