Control Bar enhancements

The Control Bar has been updated with many enhancements that allow you to customize the layout of modules, and makes it easy to access all modules, even if they are off-screen.

Highlights:

Customizable module sizes and automatic module resizing. By default, the Control Bar automatically shrinks and collapses modules in an attempt to keep all modules visible on-screen at once. For details, see Resizing modules.

The Control Bar becomes scrollable if any modules cannot fit on-screen. For details, see To scroll the Control Bar.

Expand/collapse individual modules.

Temporary pop-up module when clicking a collapsed module. For details, see To temporarily show controls in a collapsed module.

Expand/collapse the entire Control Bar vertically. For details, see Collapsing the Control Bar.

Lock the module order and hide each module’s gripper. This reduces the width of the Control Bar, which frees up space to potentially show more controls. For details, see Locking the module order.

New Mix Recall module that lets you manage multiple mixes for the current project. For details, see Mix Recall module.

New Custom module that lets you assign SONAR commands to up to 9 buttons. For details, see Custom Control Bar module.
