There's one thing that is becoming increasingly annoying to me in pro channel, and I was hoping someone might know how to do something, a keyboard shortcut.  I've looked but have not been able to find what I need.
 
I know how to make moduals default for the prochannel, and I know how to open all or shut all pro channels at the same time in console view.
 
But what I want to be able to do is:
1. Have moduals default to being CLOSED
2. With one command, perhaps a keyboard shortcut, open all the moduals in a prochannel. And visa versa.
 
Anyway to do this?

Just to clarify...
-ctrl+click on the expand button in console view expands all instances of pro-channel to the right of the one your ctrl+click
 
I think what you are going for is auto minimizing all the all the pro-channel modules in all channels and auto-expanding them. Also, having this save as a preset.
 
I don't know how to do it.
 
I thought I would post just for clarity on your question so you can nod if I'm right about what you want.

Pretty sure you have to do this the hard way.
 
I like to keep all of my PC modules minimized until such time as I need them, then open up the GUI.
Then remember to close it when I've finished.
On the plus side, Sonar will remember their open/closed state when you re-open the project PROVIDED you pay attention to your screenset settings. If you close them all within the confines of a locked preset, they will display as set when the screenset was locked.

Thanks gswitz  and Bristol -

gswitz - I was meaning being able to open up a particular pro channel (Either on track or bus), and then with a short cut, toggle all  moduals open or shut.
 
I know this is probably just nit picking. I have a number of pro channel thingees set as default. Every time I open a new track/prochannel, I have to manually shut each of them if I want to ge tto the top most moduals. That, or scroll the who pro channel. It seems to me that it would be a a nice convenience to be able to do a CTRL-O or something like that and open/close all of them quickly.
 
Thanks for the responses.

Yes, I'm with you. Don't know of a hot key for it.
