Colorize Track Controls
This slider allows you apply the track color to the track controls. Drag the
slider to the right to intensify the color.
Colorize Only Folder Track Controls
Activate this to restrict the effect of the Colorize Track Control function to
folder tracks only. This is useful in projects with a large number of tracks and
folder tracks.
Default Track Name Width
Allows you to determine the default name width for all track types.
Auto Track Color Mode
This offers you several options for automatically assigning colors to tracks that
are added to the project:
• Use Default Track Color
New tracks get the default event color.
• Use Previous Track Color
New tracks get the same color as the track above them in the track list.
• Use Previous Track Color + 1
This is similar to the Use Previous Track Color option, except that the
new tracks get the next color in the color palette.
• Use Last Applied Color
New tracks get the color that you last applied to an event/part.
• Use Random Track Color
Inserted tracks get random track colors.
General
The General page contains general settings that affect the program user interface.
Set these according to your preferred work methods.
Language
Allows you to select which language is used in the program. After switching
the language, you must restart the program for the change to take effect.
Auto Save
If this is activated, Cubase automatically saves backup copies of all open
projects with unsaved changes. These are named Name.bak, where name is
the name of the project, and are saved in the project folder. Backup copies of
unsaved projects are named #UntitledX.bak where X is an incremental
number, to allow multiple backup copies in the same project folder.
