Apple Logic Express 9 - Manual (Page 81)

Logic Express 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.

• Understanding the Window Types (p. 82)
