DP8- how to open the Notation Editor?
The manual says Option-Control double-click the track, but control activates the contextual menu...
Thanks

Interesting. What page, by chance? I just tried and had the same issue. Well you might just have to click the contextual menu and choose "Notation Editor." That worked. May need to report that one to the unicorn.SMS wrote:The manual says Option-Control double-click the track, but control activates the contextual menu...

That's a good one too! I suppose if you wanted to keep at least one hand on the mouse, you'd want the other option. But in general, learning the shortcuts does speed things up quite a bit.Dan Worley wrote:Shift N

Well, SHIFT-N isn't that hard to do with one hand.

True enough. But if it IS in the manual, and it IS broken, MOTU might want to know and either fix the option-doubleclick or edit the manual.stubbsonic wrote:Well, SHIFT-N isn't that hard to do with one hand.

Has there ever been a topic for manual errata? Would it be useful to have one?James Steele wrote:True enough. But if it IS in the manual, and it IS broken, MOTU might want to know and either fix the option-doubleclick or edit the manual.

Re: DP8- how to open the Notation Editor?
Opening the Notation Editor is the least of its problems. It's the one area of DP I'd love to see more fully developed and which never seems to get any love.
