Figure 2–21 shows elements that are common to many of the editor screens.
What elements are in an editor depends on which editor is open. The Reference

The edit window cursors define the data affected by all edit operations except the
Tools menu commands. Most of the edit commands affect the data located
between the left and right cursor positions. This region is called the edit area or
scope. Figure 2–22 shows an example of an edit area. In this example, all data is
located from left cursor position 300 to right cursor position 779.
Other edit operations use the active (selected) cursor position for inserting
waveform data. The active cursor is shown as a solid vertical line. The inactive
cursor is shown as a dashed vertical line.
