Tool Palette

Post by ec_pat5150 »

it's been a while since i've used DP. I'm using the drum editor with Superior Drummer 2.0.

I cant' remember how to keep the tool palette open and accessible. The manual tells me to select "tools" under the studio menu, or to hold down "Shift+O". Both make the palette appear for a fraction of a second and then it disappears.

What can i do to make it appear long enough to make a selection?

Not sure if they still use this keyboard shortcut or not, but I use the TILDE KEY ( ~ ) to hide/show the tool palette. It's easy to add the shortcut if you want it but it's not there. Just open the Commands Window and look for Show/Hide Tools. Add the Tilde key and you've got it.
