I've gotta thank you again for this great tip. I have just had the opportunity to put it to good use and it made the job of getting stuff from one chunk to another so much easier. Really happy to have figured this out.

And through experiments performed as a result of this thread, I am finally in the habit of changing chunks (in most cases) by using the pop-up menu in the top left of the Tracks Window. It is much easier than going to the chunks window when you don't need to.

I feel like these are new features in DP, but they are really just new bits of knowledge being put to good use. Thanks! :-)
