Apple Logic Pro 9 - Manual (Page 87)

Logic Pro allows you to customize your window setup to fit both your working style and
the task at hand. While you will perform most of your work in the Arrange window, you
can open different combinations of windows (even several of the same type) and adjust
each individually. It is also easy to save different window arrangements called screensets,
(discussed in
Using Screensets ), and recall them by pressing a key. All open windows in
a project are constantly updated, following the position of the playhead. Alterations made
in one window are immediately reflected in all other open windows. For example, if the
pitch of a note event is changed in the Score Editor, this change is instantly shown in an
open Piano Roll Editor window. This chapter outlines how you can customize and save
your overall window setup. The display options of individual windows and editors are
covered in their respective chapters.
