Selections and Edit Focus
Almost all operations in the remote editor are performed on one or more selected
zones or on the zone with edit focus. Several zones can be selected at once, but only
one zone at a time can have edit focus.
This is important since:
D Editing operations that can be performed on several zones (like delet-
ing), always apply to the selected zones.
D Editing operations that can be performed on one zone only (like adjust-
ing the “Lo key”), always apply to the zone with edit focus.
D The front panel always shows the settings for the zone with edit focus.

Selecting Zones

Clicking on a zone will also automatically give it edit focus.
You can also select multiple zones in several ways:
D By holding down [Shift] or [Command] (Mac)/[Ctrl] (Windows) and click-
ing on the zones you wish to select.
This way you can select several non-contiguous zones. You can also deselect a
selected zone by clicking on it again.

Note that the zones don’t have to be completely encompassed by the selection box.

lection.
