Small Track Sizes in Sequence Editor

This has been an ongoing issue for me in all versions of DP with any session that has a high track count. At some point, as more tracks are added, the track sizes in the SE window are limited to "medium" size - which is still pretty small. It makes pitch editing, for example, nearly impossible. MIDI tracks are not a problem as I can always open those tracks in the MIDI editor.
I don't recall others here having an issue with this but I believe many DP users use the Tracks view so perhaps they aren't making all of their tracks visible in the SE. I'm curious if this is an issue for others or if there is something I'm missing. I've opened a MOTU tech link fwiw.
Thanks, Chris

Apparently, this track size limitation happens after 50 or so tracks MOTU has stated in a tech link. If other DP users care and MOTU knows about it maybe they will address this in a future update.

Have you tried track folders?

I am a fan of track folders. Has not made a difference, thanks for the suggestion.

I thought that with the track selector you might be able to (at least) selectively show what you needed and eliminate the tracks creating the problem. Oh well...

Well hiding a folder full of tracks to bring down the count is a pretty good suggestion. Hiding/showing individual tracks would be too much of a pita. Now if I could only easily place my many track folders in a master folder that would be awesome. Thanks again MLC.

I believe you can, in fact, nest folders. Select the folders to nest and create a new folder.

What I would LOVE is "Chunk folders."

That's what I'll do. I don't believe you can group select folders and move them but you can click and drag each folder one at a time and move them that way. So I'll just do a LOT of clicking and dragging to nest everything but I'll get my large track sizes back.

What I would LOVE is a band named - The Chunk Folders.

Or just The Chunks. Nah. Probably taken.
