Changing MIDI Notes to Same Length

Note length of selected MIDI notes can be adjusted under Process > Length > Durations, but it only allows a percentage increase/decrease change.   How do you change the duration of multiple MIDI notes, each having different durations, to be all the same duration (e.g. all quarter notes)?   Thanks.

    The Event Inspector can change all midi notes to whatever values you set. Sounds like your login problem is a cookie related issue.

    I haven't verified this yet but you may have to reduce them all to -0- first, then enter the new value.
     
    I know this is true for Velocity values of differing lengths in the Event Inspector, so it may apply to the other values as well.

    Thanks.  The Event Inspector worked.  I was able to change all notes to the same duration and I did not need to reduce them to 0 first.
