Can't unhide tracks in track view

I (shift) mouse clicked on a midi track in the track view and now that is the only track visable.  How do I get all the hidden tracks back?  The tracks are still there in console view.  I just can't see them in the track view.  I tried reopening and it is still only showing the single track that I shift clicked on.  Thanks.

    hit the 'm' key and that will bring up the track manager dialog where you can select the tracks you want to show and hide.

    I'm not at Sonar, so hopefully I recall correctly.

    Thanks.  I actually found that just before you wrote back.  I found it just by clicking around.  The M key is good to know.  I had to go back and check box every track to bring them back.  Shift clicking on a track seems to be bad.  I need to break that muscle memory from a 3d package. :)  Thanks again.

    A will show all tracks
    U will go to the previous view
    Shift+ U returns the view prior to pressing U
    H puts selected tracks into view
    Shift+H hides selected tracks
    F fits tracks
    Shift+F shows whole project

    different combos of Shift Ctrl and Alt plus mouse wheel will also do things to the track view, you can change these to different things under the fast Zoom tool options, there are several combination's to choose from

    There are many ways to navigate track view

    In that Track Manager pop up, click the first hidden track so it's highlighted, then select the last hidden track while holding down Shift.  All of tracks will be selected.  Use the Space bar, and the whole list will be checked.  You don't have to check each one individually.
     
    --and actually there's one slight glitch in that pop-up.  To get the top track selected, you have to select the second one, Then go back to select the first one.  Just a minor little bug.
     
    I remember the first time I accidentally hit a keyboard short cut that made all my tracks except one disappear.  Yikes!-- It's been so long since that happened, I don't know what shortcut that was that I triggered - But Saintom's list on this thread in combination with using the Track Manager ("M") will restore any scrambled Track View you manage to stumble in to.
     
    I wouldn't be able to function without the "M" key.  I'm constantly hiding tracks I no longer need to see, like archived MIDI tracks which have been rendered to audio.
