•  Pressing this button once changes the 
two-dimensional transformation and 
rotation settings to the closest detent 
values. 
•  Pressing the [CTR] button twice, or holding 
down [SHIFT] and pressing the [CTR] 
button returns the two-dimensional 
transformation and rotation settings to the 
defaults. 
Use this in combination with the [CTR 
WORK BUFR] or [CTR] button. 
•  Pressing this button and operating the 
trackball or Z-ring changes the aspect ratio 
of a key to which the resizer function is 
applied. 
•  When this button is held down, the 
trackball or Z-ring operation is switched to 
a finer control (fine mode). 
•  Pressing this button and operating the 
trackball or Z-ring moves, shrinks, or 
magnifies a key to which the resizer 
function is applied. 
•  When this button is held down, the 
trackball or Z-ring operation is switched to 
a finer control (fine mode). 
Press this button, turning it on, to enable the 
resizer. 
•  Pressing this button, after pressing the 
[RENB] button, and operating the trackball 
or Z-ring rotates the key to which the 
resizer function is applied or adjusts 
perspective. 
•  When this button is held down, the 
trackball or Z-ring operation is switched to 
a finer control (fine mode). 
AXIS (RENB: 
rotation 
enable) 
Press this button, turning it on, to enable 
rotation operation. 
CLR WORK 
BUFR (clear 
work buffer) 
•  Pressing this button once returns the two- 
dimensional transformation and rotation 
settings to the defaults. 
•  Pressing the [CLR WORK BUFR] button 
twice, or holding down [SHIFT] and 
pressing the [CLR WORK BUFR] button 
returns all resizer parameter values to the 
defaults. 
These restrict the axes affected by the 
trackball and Z-ring to the X-, Y- or Z-axis.

Trackball 
The effect of operation depends on the operating mode as
 
follows. 
 
When the positioner operation mode is enabled
 
By moving this, you can move the pattern in the X-axis and
 
Y-axis directions. 
 
When the three-dimensional transform operation
 
mode is enabled 
Move the trackball to control three-dimensional transform
 
operation of the X- and Y-axes. 
When the [SRC] or [TRGT] button is held down, the
 
operation is switched to a finer control (fine mode). 
 
When the resizer operation mode is enabled 
By turning the trackball, you can move in the X and Y
 
directions of the key to which the resizer is applied, change
 
the aspect ratio, and rotate around the X-axis and Y-axis.
 
When the [LOC SIZE], [LOC XYZ], or [ASP PERS] 
button is held down, the operation is switched to a finer
 
control (fine mode). 
 
d
 
Z-ring 
The effect of operation depends on the operating mode as
 
follows. 
 
When the three-dimensional transform operation
 
mode is enabled 
Turn this ring to control three-dimensional transform
 
operation of the Z-axis. 
When the [SRC] or [TRGT] button is held down, the
 
operation is switched to a finer control (fine mode). 
 
When the keyframe operation mode is enabled
 
By turning the Z-ring, you can run the keyframe effect,
 
independent of the STOP NEXT KF, EFFECT LOOP, and
 
similar settings in the Flexi Pad. 
Turn clockwise to run the effect in the normal direction,
 
and counterclockwise for the reverse direction.
