MIDI Editor: Zoom use the scroll wheel
Just like in the project window, you can set the vertical and horizontal picture detail as well
as the zoom factor in the MIDI editor using the scroll wheel:
Scroll wheel: Horizontal scrolling
Shift + Scroll wheel: Vertical zoom
Shift + Ctrl + Scroll wheel: Vertical scrolling
Ctrl + Scroll wheel: Horizontal zoom
You can change the scroll wheel settings at any time by going to "File > Program
Preferences > "Edit Keyboard Shortcuts and Menu (view page 488)".
Synchronized image view in Arranger and MIDI editor:
If you change the horizontal display using the scroll bars, holding the Shift key changes the
corresponding Arranger window.
MIDI editor: mouse mode/toolbar
There are many different editing tools available for event creation and editing within the
MIDI editor. For every tool (except the eraser), editing events functions in the same way as
described above. The tools behave differently only when clicking in free areas. Access the
mouse modes/tools via the MIDI editor's "Mouse modes " menu and via the following
buttons:
Selection (Shortcut: 1)
Lasso: Hold down the mouse button to draw a selection window.
Click in an empty space to remove an existing selection.
Draw notes (Shortcut: 2)
Draw an event by clicking the selected MIDI editor and dragging to the right with the
mouse. The event snaps according to the current snap-quantization values. If the "Alt" key
is held down, then the event may be drawn freely (without the snap function).
Draw drums (Shortcut: 3)
A sequence of notes may be drawn with this tool. The length of the notes and the note
intervals are determined by the current quantization settings. Moving the mouse back (to
the left) while holding down the mouse button removes previously drawn notes.
