You can prevent the editor display from updating when you select events or hide tracks in the Project window.
The option Keep Editor Contents (Don’t follow Project window event selection) bypasses the function Editor Content Follows Event Selection, which is by default activated in the Preferences dialog (Editors page). With Editor Content Follows Event Selection activated, any events that you select in the Project window are displayed in the editor.
Procedure
- Open the Score Editor.
- On the toolbar, activate Keep Editor Contents (Don’t follow Project window event selection).
Result
When you now select an event or a part in the Project window, the score display and the selection in the Tracks section of the Visibility tab do not follow.
-
Keep Editor Contents (Don’t follow Project window event selection) is automatically deactivated when you close the Score Editor window or the lower zone editor.
-
If you deactivate Editor Content Follows Event Selection in the Preferences dialog (Editors page) and you open the Score Editor window or the lower zone editor, Keep Editor Contents (Don’t follow Project window event selection) is automatically activated.
-
Keep Editor Contents (Don’t follow Project window event selection) is not applied to tracks that you create in or remove from the Project window.
