What is it called? the adjustable progress bar below the transport controls...

It used to move 1 measure when you clicked before or after it's handle (tho never worked well near the beginning of a piece)...

Now it occasionally will accept a first click and do that only to be frustrating and not respond after that... It will move when dragged but that is sooo inaccurate!

That is called the Navigator. It can be shown/hidden by pressing Alt+N. The upper left corner of the viewing rectangle is positioned to wherever you left-click in the Navigator. There are also a number of options available by right-clicking in the Navigator pane.

How about this tool... in PRV, you could adjust the velocity level in the velocity pane by just using the mouse and drawing (holding the right button down)... 

Now, I have to have my smart tool selected and I have to do this at the note image (only when the smart velocity tool shows up).  If I want to edit a bunch of velocities (like when I change SNARE samples), this is a royal PITA.  

Is there a way to edit velocities in PRV the old fashion way?

Any help is appreciated,
Jim

Yes, you can edit velocities in the controller pane by holding Alt while using the Smart tool. Just drag your mouse over the velocity lines to change their values (heights).

It works with the smart tool and ALT, but either you must have the notes of which you want to edit the velocity selected, or you have to have NO note selected (and there are sometimes not visible). So the best to be sure is to click before in an empty place with the selection tooL

Yay! Since hot tips are being thrown around: Is there and easy way to move notes vertically in the PRV while being locked horizontally? Like the way you would when the draw tool would turn into a vertical up-and-down arrow when aiming at the middle of notes.
Also: Is drag quantize gone?

Hold SHIFT while moving the note. ;)

Thanks, I tried that and it works fine with regular notes but I should've said my problem relates to drum notes. It seems you have to click them dead center for it to work, which is hard cause they're tiny!

Hi Scott...

Thanks but no... I'm not speaking of the navigator... On the control bar in the transport module. At the bottom is a slider.... I've used it foever and it's difficulty at the beginning of pieces was an inability due to windows itself (according to the tech I spoke with a long while back)...

But thanks for trying...

Hi Keni,

Oh, okay... yeah, you can't click on either side of the slider. That would be nice. In the meantime, you can use key shortcuts instead. Ctrl+PgUp and Ctrl+PgDn to move the Now Time back and forth one measure at a time.
