Inserting and Deleting Markers and Enter Switch Points
To insert a marker by using the INSERT key or the shortcut menu, first place the Insertion Marker in the upper half of the track. To insert an enter switch point, place the insertion marker in the lower half of the track. By default, markers are aligned with grid divisions. To make finer adjustments, use the Marker/Enter Switch Point Properties window after inserting the object. The left edge of the displayed mark is the position of the object; the width is not significant.
You can enter and delete multiple objects with a single command, as follows:
- To mark or unmark all measures, beats, or grids in the segment
- Right-click the top or bottom half of any division in the marker track and select Mark All or Unmark All on the shortcut menu.
- On the submenu, click Measures, Beats, or Grids. All divisions of that type are marked or unmarked.
- To mark or unmark selected measures, beats, or grids
- Select multiple divisions in the track where marks are to be placed or removed. You can select separate divisions by holding the CTRL key as you click, or select a range by holding the SHIFT key. Note that you can select the upper or lower half of any division, or both, but only one type of object will be inserted or deleted at one time, depending on where you click in the next step.
- Right-click any selected object. On the shortcut menu, select Mark Range or Unmark Range.
- On the submenu, click Measures, Beats, or Grids. All selected divisions on the matching boundaries and of the same type are marked or unmarked.
