Track Controls Settings Dialog

The Track Controls Settings dialog allows you to configure which track controls are displayed in the track list. You can also specify the order of controls and group controls so that they are always shown adjacent to each other.

Note

The Track Controls Settings dialog is available for the main track types. The track types that are shown in the More Tracks section of the Add Track dialog, however, have a fixed set of track-specific controls. Exceptions to this are the chord track and the video track.

  • To open the Track Controls Settings dialog, right-click a track in the track list and select Track Controls Settings from the context menu, or click Open Track Controls Settings Dialog in the bottom right corner of the track list.
