is assigned option is activated.
Part Data Mode
Determines if and how events in MIDI parts are shown: not shown, as lines,
as score notes, as drum notes, or as blocks. Note that this setting is
overwritten for tracks with drum maps if the Edit as Drums when Drum Map
is assigned option is activated.
