Selecting events

Many functions (e.g delete from the edit menu) require that you have selected some range of bars and tracks that will be affected by the selected operation. You can drag a rectangle to select a range. Holding the shift-key down while pressing the left mouse button will continue a selection. This way, you can select a range bigger than the window by continuing a selection after scrolling. Alternatively, you can click into the leftmost column to select a whole track.

The selection indicates a range of tracks (y-axis) and a range of bars (x-axis). These values are copied to the Eventfilter from Settings-Menu. In the eventfilter you can specify more precice, which events shall be worked with.

Example: To delete all events but program changes from bar 5 to 15 on track 1 to 3, mark bars and tracks by dragging a rectangle. Then select the eventfilter and disable program-changes (patch). Finally select Delete from Edit-Menu.
