Resize

Area filters can be resized in time – along the horizontal axis – or frequency – vertical axis –. Slight differences are noticeable from an item to the other.

Snippets, due to their spectral contents, cannot be resized. A move along the frequency axis is actually similar to a resize operation, to some extent.

Surface and Pencil Strokes

To resize a filter, hover the mouse over it until the pointer turns into a double triangle , or a cross , depending on the type of filter.

Surface, or pencil strokes, can be resized with click and drag one of their vertical or horizontal borders. Note that an important frequency range range modification of pencil strokes will considerablly affect its geometry.

Regions

Regions can be globally modified from the sonogram window, only if they have be created with successive clicks, showing a set of points. If note, these can be modified in time via the Processing Sequencer. Click and drag a point to modify its coordinates.

Manipulating Items via the Processing Sequencer
Automatic Block Resize

When a filter is resized in time, the corresponding block in the Processing Sequencer is automatically resized.

Move, Delete

Move

To move an item, hover the mouse over it until the pointer turns into a hand tool.

  • Click on the area to move it freely along the time or frequency axis.

  • Use the ←↑→↓ keys – add Shift to move the item faster.

This manipulation can be applied to multiple items with a prior multiple selection.

Editing the Position in Time and Frequency of Snippets
Delete

To delete one or several items, select them and press Backspace, press Cmd + X, or choose Edit/Cut.

Cut-Copy/Paste

One or several area filters and snippets can be cut or copied and paste with the usual manipulations and shortcuts.

Cut/Paste

Press Cmd + X-V, or select File/Cut-Paste. The item(s) will appear at the cursor's location, and will have the same position of the frequency axis.

Copy/Paste

  • Select the item(s) and press Cmd + C-V, or select File/Copy-Paste. The item(s) will appear at the cursor's location, and will have the same position of the frequency axis.

  • Press Alt and drag the item to the desired location
