Hi all. FYI: I'm using PT/RB 2016. On a W7 machine.

When I open either PT or RB, I have only 8 1/2 tracks visible.
Because the tracks are very wide on my screen. Piano is hidden.

I've checked out a ton of on line videos, and in every case I
see 14 to 15 tracks. And that's WITH piano on.

My screen matches the ones in the videos. As in, the top two
rows of toolbars/icons, and the bottom tool bar with the start, stop, etc. functions. Piano is hidden.

My PC screen resolution is maxed out. (at recommended setting)

I've been using BIAB/PT since version 7. Many years. I used to
have 13 tracks visible. Since version 10 or 11 (I forget) I'm stuck with 8 totally visible tracks. And part of track 9.

BTW: I know how to drag/resize or toggle to view the bottom half of the tracks to edit, etc. The problem isn't that I made the tracks too wide. I have them at the minimum. (Sized to just open enough to see the drop down menu arrow, using the arrow to toggle to that size.)

Also . . . I read in my HELP that if I click on the drop down arrow under the track number I can toggle between 3 settings.
Normal, open (for editing) and small/narrow. It says toggle and it will rotate between the 3.

When I toggle, I get only 2 choices. Open or normal.

I'm using a 40" screen, just upgraded from my 32". It was bad enough with the 32". I don't need tracks over an inch wide. Way too much scrolling.

Ideas? TIA, Wayne thenettrainer@yahoo.com

PS: Both interfaces use up way too much real estate! My icons are huge! The tool bars are too wide. Too much wasted space.
