Instrument Selection

You can select a single instrument by left clicking the mouse on it, and change the
selection by pressing the tab-key.

To make multiple selections, hold down the control key and left-click on the desired
instruments. You can also left click, hold and move to create a selection rectangle.

Move Instruments

There are two ways to move instruments. First, make your desired selection. You can then
use the mouse to drag the instruments, or use the cursor keys to move them step by step
(hold down the control key to move the instrument in steps of ten). The move process
performed with the mouse can be broken off by pressing the escape key.

Resize Instruments

When you select a instrument, sizing handles appear at the corners and along the edges of
the selection rectangle. You can resize an object by dragging its sizing handles, or by
using the cursor keys while holding down the shift key. The resize process performed with
the mouse can be broken off by pressing the escape key. Only one instrument can be
resized at a time. Furthermore, each instruments has its own size minimum.
