Displaying Project Windows
You can switch between two project display modes using the Tab key. This toggles between the normal view and a simplified view without track heads and objects without waveform representation.
Arrange Project Windows
By default, each new project window is opened docked in the Project docker. Click on the respective project tab to activate the desired project.
To work with dockers and the associated keyboard shortcuts, read the section Docking
To display all open project windows side by side, press the Enter key (menu View > Tile).
To restore the previous view press Shift + Enter (Menu View > Untile).
If windows become unreachable because in a previous session you were working with multiple monitors, but now only one monitor is connected, you can reach these windows again with the command Menu View > Windows > All windows to main screen.
If additionally the Shift button is pressed when the command is selected, the saved window positions of windows that are not currently open are also adjusted so that they are opened on the main screen.
To close a project, click x on the respective project tab or choose Menu File > Close Project.
WaveColor
With WaveColor, two additional properties of the audio material are visualized in the waveform display via the color. The pitch is represented by the hue: Low tones are red, mid tones are green, high tones are blue. The sound characteristics of the audio material are represented by the color saturation: The more tonal and harmonic the signal, the more saturated the color, the more noise there is, the less saturated the color will be.

You activate the WaveColor waveform coloring with this icon on the bottom toolbar or menu View > VIP display mode > WaveColor waveform display. |
Display Normalized Waveform
This option can be switched via this button on the lower toolbar. The waveform of a track is zoomed vertically so that the sample with the highest value fills the track height exactly. Manual vertical zooming of the waveform using the keyboard shortcuts Ctrl + up/down arrow or the buttons for Zoom Wave In and Zoom Wave Out are disabled.
Attention: In this display mode, the volumes of objects can no longer be compared visually, as they always look the same regardless of the object volume setting. Use this view mode when you want to cut objects with very different levels and do not want to constantly change the zoom level of the waveform.
Recalculate Graphic
In rare cases, inaccuracies in the display of objects may occur after offline editing. Use menu View > Rebuild graphic data to update the graphical waveform display for the entire project.
