Left-button to lasso instead?

Just a quick question, lest I have to go to all the trouble of having to RTFM...

I prefer to lasso clips using my left button (as was the case in X1, 8.5 and earlier) rather then with the right button (as with X2).  Can I swap the key bindings for this?

I'm away from my studio PC and on a mobile device (hence the question), but earlier today when working on editing a tune I found it much slower with the right button.  Part of it is muscle memory, not just for Sonar but for so many other programs.  The other part is finger strength as I was finding it more tiring the new way.

I'll check back on my studio PC when I'm there tomorrow, but this thought has been stuck in my head and I just had to ask the question....

    I think you can edit those key bindings any way you want.

    Give it a shot.  Instructions are in the doc.  When you are ready to swap you will find motivation to read.

    No you can't edit the smart tool defaults. Not AFAIK anyway.
