Sonar 8.5 Track view problem with left pane

That's weird. Try pressing the i key on your keyboard to toggle it off and on.

Chapple: Nope... that didn't help, but thanks. Stoons: OK... "Track Inspector"... at least I have the right terminology now (DUH!). But I can't find the word "MASTER" anywhere at the bottom of it. There is a label called "Display" which prings up a "popoup" of all the things displayed in the pane, but there is no LOCK option there. There are also three Right facing triangle pointers which when clicked, brink up a whole hierarchy of popups, mostly having to do with things like sends and meters. But no "lock" anywhere. this sounds like the right track though. Did I mention its 8.5.3 "producer"?

Its missing! Yes there is a track number label "Track 1", but no track "name" with little arrow. NOW... if I open up another project, an untouched template, then between the "O"utput selector and the Track number ("Track 1" or whatever) there is another little window with the actual track NAME, like "Drums" or whatever. But on the project I'm talking about, that track name window doesn't exist. I suppose this is a case of the project getting corrupt. I can't tell you how many times this has happened, where something just wasn't right, and I had no choice but to re-build my project by cutting/pasting tracks, plug-ins, and settings between projects. More often I get the "Volume level" bug, where I have a track recorded at somewhere near "0" dB, but it will only play back at around -30. Nothing I can do then but create a new track, move the audio clips and plugins to it, and then HIDE the "problem" track. But I digress... -(
