Selection Techniques

Whenever you want to perform a function on one or more objects, you first need to

select the objecs. This applies equally to Regions, individual events or Environment

Objects. Selected objects are either displayed in an inverted color scheme, or will flash

(in the Score Editor).

An object selected in one window will also be selected in all other windows that

display that object. Changing the top window doesn’t affect the selection (as long as

you don’t click on the background, which deselects everything. Be sure to click on the

window’s title bar).

Goto Selection Start/End

The Goto Selection Start/ End key command moves the song position line to the

location of the first/most recently selected event in the top window.

Scroll to Selection

The Scroll to Selection key command automatically updates the top window, so that the

first of the currently-selected events is visible.

Selecting Individual Objects

Individual objects may be selected by clicking on them, and deselected by clicking on

the background or by selecting another object.

You can also use the Select next/previous Region/event key commands (default: right/left

arrows, M/I in the Event List). Select first/last selects the first/last object of the currently

displayed level.

Selecting Alphabetically

The Tab key selects the next alphabetical object. In the Arrange or Environment

windows, pressing any letter key selects the first object with a name that begins with

the chosen letter (as in the Mac’s Finder), provided that no key command is assigned to

this key.

Selecting Several Objects

To select several non-contiguous objects, hold down Shift as you click them. As

subsequent objects or events are selected, the previous selections are retained. This

also works with horizontal or rubber band selection.

Use the Toggle Next/Previous Region/Event key commands to select the following/

previous Region/event as well (default: Shift-Right Arrow/Shift-Left Arrow).

Horizontal Selection

To select all Regions on a track, click on the track name in the Track List. In the same

way, you can select all events (of a specified event definition) in the Hyper Editor, by

clicking on the event definition name, or all notes of a certain pitch in the Matrix Editor

by clicking the relevant key on the Matrix Editor’s keyboard.
