Toggling back and forth from Clips to Automation in Track View

I can't seem to find a key shortcut for toggling back and forth from clip to automation which I use a million times when mixing. Would love some instruction. At the moment it is mouse to pull down menu back and forth-pain.
 
Thank you,
Michael

    Right-clicking with the Shift key held down. Works fine here.

    Hmm.I really hoped that was going to work. Is it a key binding? Or a Cakewalk default?

    Type + to toggle between Clip and Volume automation. Also you didn't ask about this, but one of my favorite features is using Quick Grouping on the edit filter - hold Ctrl while choosing the desired edit filter and all the tracks will use the same edit filter.

    It's a Cakewalk default.

    Craig!!! You have no idea during a 12 hour session (every weekend_ how many times I need to access that. I will try your other shortcut as well. Thank you Dr. Anderton. Your generosity is only exceeded by your fine looks. As you can see in my avatar, I am watching. 
     
    Seriously, I appreciate this. I'll think of some others.

    michael japanSeriously, I appreciate this.

     
    I'm always glad to help. SONAR is a complex and sophisticated tool. It's easy to miss out on things...even after using the program for 16 years, every now and then I'll see something in the forums and think "Wow, I wish I'd known about that ten years ago!"
