Apple Logic Express 7 - Manual (Page 21)

Chapter 1 Using Logic 21
During operations involving events, the help tag looks something like this:
From left to right, the values indicate: (name of ) operation, mouse (or event) position,
event type, event MIDI channel, first data byte (note pitch, for example), second data
byte (note velocity, for example), and event length (note length, for example).
Window Functions
The basic functions of the Logic windows are the same as those in other Macintosh
applications. The display options available in Logic’s windows are far more extensive,
however, than those of other programs.
In Logic, you can open different combinations of windows (even several of the same
type) and adjust each one individually. All open windows in a song are constantly
updated. This means that the windows update to follow the song position, and any
alterations made in one window immediately update the display of all other windows
you are working with. It is also easy to save different window arrangements (called
“Screensets”), and recall them with the push of a button.
Working With Windows
Opening Windows
All Logic windows can be opened from the Windows menu. The corresponding key
command (Open Arrange, Command-1, for example) is displayed beside each menu
item, allowing you to open the window without using the mouse. You can open as
many of the same type of window as you like.
The Toggle … Window key commands allow you to define one key command to:
• bring an open window (of an assigned type) to the front,
• open a window of the assigned type,
• close a window of the assigned type, if it is in front (the active window).
Setting Window Size
You can adjust window size by dragging the lower right-hand corner of the window, as
with any window in the Finder.
