Tracks and Track Groups : Track Groups
5 - 111
Clicking in this column field drops down a list box which contains the names of all the Tracks in the group. The
selected name determines which Track will be displayed when the display is collapsed.
The rest of the fields
All the other column fields toggle when clicked, either displaying Ye s or a blank. The functions described below
apply when the fields are set to
Ye s.
Keep Cursor
The Group ‘remembers’ the position of the cursor and restores it each time one of its Tracks is selected.
Free Zoom
The group has its own zooming factor, independent of the general zoom factor.
Free Markers
Track Groups can have their own list of markers that are displayed on the Track Group Scale or on the main Time-
Code Scale if the Track Group Scale is hidden (see below).
Markers Locked
Locks the Markers. For the particular Group. Free Markers must be ON
No Selection
Clicking on Clips placed on Tracks of the Group does not select anything, the cursor is simply placed at the posi-
tion where the mouse is clicked. Clicking with the
Q key held down allows Clips to be selected on these Tracks.
Auto Solo
If any Track of this Group is selected, the whole group is automatically Soloed.
Auto Mute
The whole Group is automatically muted unless one of its Tracks is selected.
Auto Record Ready
When a Track of this Group is selected, the whole Group goes into Record Ready mode.
Auto Collapse
When none of the Tracks of this Group is selected, the Group is automatically collapsed to display a single Track.
When this Track is selected, the whole Group is expanded.
Auto Hide
When none of the Tracks of this Group is selected, all Tracks of the group are automatically hidden. When any
Track of the Group is selected, the whole Group is shown.
Exclusive Show
When any Track of this Group is selected, all Tracks that are not part of this Group are hidden. This is the equivalent
of a Solo for the Display.
Show Scale
Toggles show/hide an independent scale for TimeCode if the Track Group is on Free Zoom and Markers if it is in
Free Markers
mode. If OFF then the Scale and Markers are displayed in the main Scale of the Timeline when any
of the Tracks of this Group is selected.
Selection
When set to Ye s this option ensures that any selection made within a Track Group is extended to all Tracks in the
group.
Selection is disabled by default for backwards compatibility.
All other columns of the Tab Window (
Solo, Mute, Record, Monitoring, Display, Show/Hide, Size, Color, Sync,
Automation Display) define which of the parameters set in the Track Header or in the Tracks Tab window are
affected by the group, I.e. which of these parameters are changed in the whole group when a change is made to
an individual Track of the Group.
