Setting The Focus; Working With Multiple Windows - Steinberg HALION4 Mode D'emploi

Further Setup Options
Moving Views and Tabs
• To move a view or tab, hold down [Shift], click in its upper left corner, and drag it to
another position.
Depending on the drop position, it is added as a tab or as part of a split view.
Expanding and Resizing Editor Sections
Some editors, such as the Options editor, contain expandable sections. These
sections can be resized or collapsed so that they only show their title bar. This helps
you save space and focus on the edited parameters.
• To expand or collapse a section, click the "+" or "-" icon on the left of the title bar,
or click the title bar.
• To open several sections at the same time, hold down [Ctrl]/[Command] and click
the "+" icon or the title bar.
• To resize a section, click in the middle of its lower border (the position is indicated
by a dotted line) and drag up or down.

Setting the Focus

It is useful to know which view, window, or tab has the focus, because this is where
your key commands are applied, for example. The view that has the focus is indicated
by a blue frame.
• To set the focus on a specific view, use one of its controls or edit a parameter.
You can also click on the frame of a view or in an empty background of a section.
