Editing - Tool Modifiers
On this page you can specify which modifier keys are used for additional functionality when
using tools.
PROCEDURE
1. Select an option in the Categories list.
2. Select the action for which you want to edit the modifier key in the Action list.
3. On your computer keyboard, hold down the modifier keys and click Assign.
RESULT
The current modifier key(s) for the action is replaced. If this tool already has assigned
modifier key(s), you will be asked whether you want to replace them.
Editing - Tools
Pop-up Toolbox on Right-Click
If this option is activated, the toolbox opens on right-click in the event display
and editors. You can change the number of rows in which the tools are arranged
on the toolbox. Keep the right mouse button pressed until the mouse pointer
changes to a double arrow and drag to the bottom or right.
• To open the context menu instead of the toolbox, press any modifier key
when right-clicking.
Cross-Hair Cursor
This allows you to set up a cross-hair cursor when working in the event display
and editors, facilitating navigation and editing, especially when arranging in large
projects. You can set up the colors for the line and the mask of the cross-hair
cursor, and define its width. The cross-hair cursor works as follows:
• If the Selection tool (or one of its subtools) is selected, the cross-hair
cursor appears when you start moving or copying a part/event or when you
use the event trim handles.
• If the Draw 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.
Select Tool: Show Extra Info
Activate this to show a tooltip for the Object Selection tool in the Project window
event display. This tooltip indicates the current pointer position and the name of
the track and event at which you are pointing.
Zoom Tool Standard Mode: Horizontal Zooming Only
This affects the result when using the Zoom tool (magnifying glass).
If this option is activated and you drag a selection rectangle with the Zoom tool,
the window is only zoomed horizontally and the track height does not change. If
this option is deactivated, the window is zoomed both horizontally and vertically.
