GENERAL FUNCTIONS IN THE PROJECT WINDOW 103
The play cursor always automatically remains at the beginning of the range, even if you
can't see it at this moment in time. To expand the range to other tracks, click on the top
half of the selected object again and drag the mouse down vertically while keeping the
mouse button held. Now click the section with the "Shift" key held down, and every object
featuring a middle point within the selection rectangle will be selected.
A range may also be selected by dragging the mouse across the timeline. This will then be
indicated by a different color. Double clicking this range in the timeline selects a range in
the selected track; double clicking again selects the range over all tracks, and double
clicking once more restores the simple timeline selection.
The timeline selection enables the play cursor to be positioned outside the range. The
range will remain in loop mode. This way, playback may be started in front of or within a
loop. In this case, the range edges may also be modified during playback. The playback
range may be deleted by dragging to size 0. . Click the range borders in the timeline to
position the play cursor at the playback borders. Double clicking the timeline outside of the
range removes the playback range.
Leaving a range
To select a different range, click somewhere in the project other than the current range,
and simply draw a new range.
Reactivating a range
Use the shortcut "Shift + backspace". By clicking on this command repeatedly you can
restore the last five ranges. You can execute the same function by clicking on the left arrow
button in the transport control.
