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.

Window Buttons

The three buttons found at the top left of all windows (except the Transport) perform
the following operations:

Left button (black dot): closes the window.

Center button (minus sign): minimizes the window, and places an icon on the Dock.
The window can be restored by clicking on the icon in the Dock.

Right button (plus sign); resizes the window to the maximum screen size. A second
click on the icon will restore the original window size.

Moving Up One Level in the Display Hierarchy

Clicking the button featuring the square graphic (Up One Display Level button—or
UDL button) in the top left corner of the window takes you to the next (higher) display
level.

Note: Double-clicking on the background of the edit area of a window also takes you
to the next highest display level.
