FXBin Size

 
Every view that has the FXBin in Sonar X2 has a super small amount of space for it.  I use a lot of effects, so I am constantly clicking the up and down arrows trying to find the effects I want.
 
Is there any way to make the FXBin bigger?  I keep scratching my head as to why it's so small, or what view I am missing where you can see all the effects easily.  For example on the inspector when you get rid of let's say the sends then there is just gray wasted space that the effects bin could take up.
 
Thanks
Stout

    The answer is no.
    You can use FX chains.
    Put in a feature request.

    Just put in a Feature Request.  I'll have to try the FX chains, I have never used those.

    Thanks for the tip.

    You can also drag your Fx into the Pro Channel. Each module has a collapse button which will just show the name of whatever vst you've loaded.

    I reckon you could get a good 20-30 modules in there, no problem.

    This is really handy!
     
    But when the fx bin isn't minimised it's too big. For example if there are only one or two plugins in the fx bin (in prochannel) it would be nice to *decrease* the size (vertically) of the bin.
     
    How ironic that this one is too big while the track fx bin is too small

    No pro channel here, I opted for the studio version. 

    I already have so many vst's, i did'nt have the need for the pro channel ones.
