Displaying Project Windows

Configure Project Display

The visual appearance of the project window and the objects it contains can be configured very flexibly. You can switch between two project display modes using the Tab key. The default setting switches between the normal view and a simplified view without track heads and with objects without waveform representation.

You can access the display options via the menu View > VIP display mode > View Options... or with the keyboard shortcut Shift + Tab.

For detailed information on project display options, see System Options >Project Display.

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.

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.
