Wiper at start and the end of event
Dears all,
i need to fast place the playhead (wiper) at the start or the end of a MIDI event i select.

Thanks in advance.

Go to the Commands window and search for 'Selection' there. There are so many commands available there no one could possibly memorize them all. The search function is your friend.antongiulio wrote:Dears all,

Re: Wiper at start and the end of event
Command-4 and command-6 are Play From Selection Start and Play From Selection End respectively. If you have the transport paused (keypad 2) when you press these, the wiper will go to the start or end of the selection and pause. Perhaps that's not exactly what you were looking for, but I think it's a fair work-around.
So you could hit Keypad 2, Command-4, Keypad 0(stop), and that would put you at the beginning of the selection. Substitute Command-6 for end of selection.

Re: Wiper at start and the end of event
Great job Phil. I just tried it and if you pause first this works just fine. I'll will probably use this trick now.Phil O wrote:Command-4 and command-6 are Play From Selection Start and Play From Selection End respectively.
