2. Drag up or down to change the height of the Universe view.
If you resize the Universe view to less than its minimum size, the view will
toggle off. This provides another method of hiding the view. When you toggle
the view on again, it will restore to its previous height.
The Current View Indicator
The area of the session that is currently displayed in the Edit window is
represented by a white rectangular frame in the Universe view.
If you change the display in the Edit window—by zooming, scrolling, hiding
or showing tracks, or changing track heights—the framed area in the
Universe view will relocate and resize accordingly. During playback, if the
Edit window is set to scroll, the framed area in the Universe view will also
scroll.

Moving and Scrolling from the Universe View
By clicking in the Universe view, you can scroll the material displayed in the

1. If the Universe view is not currently displayed, choose VIEW > OTHER
DISPLAYS > UNIVERSE.
2. Do one of the following:
• Click anywhere in the Universe view to move the framed area. The Edit
window will update accordingly, jumping to the framed location.
• Click and drag on the framed area. The Edit window will scroll in real
time to match your movements in the Universe view.
