The Size of FX Rack.

Hi, All! I'm newbie to sonar platinum. (upgrade from sonar x3 producer.)
 

 
As you can see, fx rack in left side of track view OR console view (in this image, console view) is too small.
 
I've used sonar x3 producer, and I remember it is bigger than this. I usually work on this space, but it is too small to work with.
 
Can I adjust the size of fx rack?
 
Thanks!

    Hi. It will expand when you add a new fx.
    All the best.

    Also it will keep expanding as you add FX instead of being a fixed size.

    I think this is one of the best improvements regarding real estate in Console View

    I love this feature (The expanding FX bin). Sonar just keeps improving on wasted space/real estate in the GUI.
    Very helpful indeed.

    It's a small detail, but it makes a difference! I upgraded to SPlat from an older version of Sonar and had the same initial reaction as the OP... then i added a second and third plug in... "Ohhhhhh!" 

    Sonar...sorry... SONAR Platinum, HP Envy PC I5 2.7Ghz, Focusrite Scarlett 18i20, Behringer X Touch, Lots of strats, Marshalls, and Fender Twins!
