Class Pop-Ups specifying the Class to which the given part is assigned. Existing
Classes can be chosen or new Classes can be created on-the-fly. “<AudioBox 2 Class>” signifies the
individual part simply using the given object’s overall Class. By-default, “Loci” are assigned to the
“NonPlot-Loci” Class and all other parts are assigned to the
object’s overall Class
(the rough equivalent of
leaving the previous Audio ToolSet 2 versions’ “Class Parts...” box un-ticked )
