2.3.7 The View menu

Every item in the View menu: the Arranger, the DAW and the Mixer, window layouts, zoom, the hint bar, Big Time, Nimi and full screen.

The View menu changes what you see: the Arranger, the Mixer, the window’s layout, the zoom and the helpers.

2.3.7.1 Arranger

Ctrl+1. Opens the Arranger. If the song has no Arranger track yet, it adds one.

2.3.7.2 DAW

Ctrl+3. Shows the main window’s timeline.

2.3.7.3 Mixer

Ctrl+4. Shows the Mixer. The mixer button in the top bar does the same.

2.3.7.4 Window Layout

ItemWhat it does
Save Current LayoutRemembers the window’s size and position, even across two screens. Harmonic Pro Studio opens like this every time.
Apply Saved LayoutPuts the window back to the layout you saved.
Reset to Single ScreenGoes back to one full-size window on one screen, and forgets the saved layout.

2.3.7.5 Zoom In, Zoom Out and Zoom to Fit

Ctrl+= zooms the timeline in, Ctrl+- zooms it out, and Ctrl+0 resets the zoom.

2.3.7.6 Hint Bar

Shows or hides the hint bar, the line after the menus that tells you about whatever the mouse is on. A tick means it is shown.

2.3.7.7 Big Time Display

A large, floating clock showing where you are in the song, easy to read from across the room. Choose it again to close it.

2.3.7.8 Chat with Nimi

Ctrl+Shift+A. Opens Nimi, the studio’s AI. Ask for changes in your own words. Nimi floats over the studio, and shrinks to a small round button when you close it. Nimi is an optional plan: see Nimi.

2.3.7.9 Full Screen

F11. Fills the whole screen with Harmonic Pro Studio. Press it again to go back.
