Key command for maximizing edit windows

Post by petermarchione » Thu Oct 15, 2009 11:43 am

OK, I must be missing something out here but please forgive me for asking this in case it is toooo obvious:
Is there any key command for maximizing e.g. the loop view so it swithces from the bottom of the screen- to full sreen view? I'd love to be able to blow up the selected clip to tweak it and then put it back to normal size with the same command.

sorry but that functionaility does not exist at all so it would be pointless to have a keycommand for it ;)

There’s no keyboard command for it as far as I know. You can however fill the whole of the screen with a clip by dragging the line between the clip view and session/arrangement view.

what you can do though is drag the separation bar up and then close the window completely with Alt/Apple L...then open it up with the same command....

Thanks a lot for the advice! I'm pretty fed up with dragging the bar manually since it slows the workflow. User configurable key-commands would be really nice in Live 9... hint hint :)
