Defining Edit Area
Figure 3–17 shows an example of the waveform pattern created in the area
defined by area cursor. All edit operations act on either the area between the
cursors or the area to the right of the active cursor. When you edit a pattern, you
must first specify the area or the position to be edited.
The area to edit is specified as the area between the left and right vertical cursors.
You can select the active cursor by pushing the TOGGLE button, and move a
cursor by using the general purpose knob or numeric keys.
H
Push the TOGGLE button on the front panel to switch the active cursor
between the left and right cursor. You cannot activate both the left and right
cursors at the same time. The activated cursor is represented with the real
vertical line and the nonactive cursor with the dashed vertical line.
H
Move the active cursor to the position to be edited.
Depending on the type of operation, only the active cursor position may be
important. In this case, you must activate either the left or right cursor and move
to the position to perform the action.
