Hi Jessica.<BR>
Funny enough, I've just been thinking about apologizing to you for not listening to your advice. Felt slightly guilty because you told me how to select items on day one, and I feel as if by looking for an easier way, I've kinda dismissed it as not good enough. I've just been getting some success at last by doing exactly what you told me to the other day, but I couldn't work out how to do it for more than one track at a time. It seems as if you've just provided me with an answer to that. thanks for your help, really appreciate it.<BR>I'm off to have another go. Cheers. <BR>

In<BR>> my case, upon pressing SHIFT+SPACE, track 2 was selected and touched,<BR>> and nothing happened to track 1. After pressing SHIFT+SPACE again,<BR>> track 1 and 2 both appeared as selected and touched. I admit I don't<BR>> know what touched means in this case. try pressing SHIFT+SPACE twice<BR>> before selecting your items. alternatively, SHIFT+Up or Down arrow<BR>> will select the track above or below your current position,<BR>> respectively. this should work as long as you are selecting continuous<BR>> tracks. From there, you will still need to select your items, but the<BR>> selction will apply to all selected tracks. i wish I could tell you<BR>> there is an easier way, but in my year and a half of using Reaper, I<BR>> have yet to find one. Hope this helps.<BR>> <BR>> jessica<BR>> <BR>> On 10/5/12, chris flatley <cflat@hotmail.co.uk> wrote:<BR>> ><BR>> > Okay, so I'm still locked in this farce with copy paste.
