Adding more background elements
1. Go back to Backgrounds on the Objects menu and
drag one of the backgrounds to the edit area.
Since the most recently added object automatically ends up on top of all
others, we must rearrange the order here.
2. Select the object you just added, then right-click
(Win)/[Ctrl]-click (Mac) to open the context menu.
3. Choose “To Background” – this will send the object to
the back.
At this point the object is no longer visible, simply because
it ended up behind the large grey Background that we
added in the beginning.
4. To solve this problem, click on the grey background to
select it, then open the context menu again and select “To
Background” once more.
Now the objects are in the correct order, and you can go on to resize the
additional background so that it encompasses the title and the knobs.
Now let’s create a second group of controls.
5. Drag another background like the one we just added
and drop it in the empty space below the existing group.
6. To make the new background the same size as the
first one, press [Shift], select both objects and then use
the resize handles of the original object.
The second object will assume the same height and width as the first.
The obvious thing to do now is to make the second group
“Realtime Controls B”, but since we’ve gone over rotary
knobs already let’s try a few other Korg Triton controls.
