You can change the height of the whole Key Editor and each editor within it. For example, you can make the piano roll editor taller when inputting notes, and make the Velocity editor taller when changing note velocity.

Prerequisite

  • The lower zone is shown.

  • Key Editor is selected in the lower zone toolbar.

Procedure

Do one of the following:
  • To change the height of the whole Key Editor, click and drag Resize Lower Zone or the top edge of the lower zone upwards/downwards. When the mouse pointer is in the correct position, it appears as a split arrow.

  • To change the height of individual editors, click and drag their splitters upwards/downwards. When the mouse pointer is in the correct position, it appears as a split arrow.

Tip

You can assign a key command for Cycle Lower Zone Size on the Key Commands page in Preferences, which makes the lower zone fill 25%, 50%, then 75% of the project window.
