[Solved] Narrow Strips

Beginning to think I am losing it.  I am convinced I saw an all in one command to make all strips narrow.  Anybody know about this or am I dreaming?  Doing it one at a time is laborious to say the least.  thank you for your help.

BTW Narrow Strips are linked to a separate fader png file. Which can be useful if you set to different colour and say set all you drums to narrow, making all you drum faders stand out

Hi. Good advice here already.
I use "U" as a custom key for narrowing all strips in Console View. It is unassigned in CV (at least). 
All the best.

I typically drag to select the tracks I want narrow,
Then I hold CNTRL and right click on one track= choose narrow strip.
this allows me to narrow a group of tracks or all of them if needed.

Thanks guys.  A big help for me.  I have been doing each one separately and it is a drag.
 
Appreciate the help.  Really.

Quick Grouping, as mentioned by Chuck,  is a very powerful technique for changing lots of parameters at once - not just narrowing or widening strips.
