its width.
The cross-hair cursor works as follows:
•
When the Object Selection tool or one of its subtools is selected, the cross-hair cursor
appears when you start moving/copying a part/event, or when using the event trim
handles.
Cross-hair cursor when moving an event.
•
When the Object Selection tool, the Cut tool, or any other tool that makes use of this
function is selected, the cross-hair cursor appears as soon as you move the mouse
over the event display.
•
The cross-hair cursor is only available for tools where such a function is of any use.
The Mute tool, for example, does not use a cross-hair cursor, as you have to click
directly on an event to mute it.

action was performed. In the Details column further details are shown. Here you can enter

position.
You can only undo your actions in reverse order, for example, the last performed action
is the first action to be undone.
