To temporarily invoke a tool
While using a specific tool, you can temporarily invoke another tool by holding down the new tool’s
keyboard shortcut. Release the shortcut to switch back to the previously selected tool.
For example, if you are using the Move tool and need to select some notes, press and hold down the
F6 key (shortcut for the Select tool), make a selection, then release the F6 key to return to the Move
tool.
For a list of tool shortcuts, see
“Using keyboard shortcuts to select tools” on page 448.
Hotspots and modifier keys
Clips, note events, envelopes and AudioSnap transients have different “hotspots”. That is, a tool
may do something different depending on where you click. As you move the mouse pointer, the
current hotspot is shown as a shaded rectangle.
A modifier key, such as CTRL, ALT or SHIFT, may also be used in some cases to extend a tool’s
function.
