Using the Marquee Selection to Create Track Automation Nodes
When you edit automation data that is spanned by a marquee selection, two automation
nodes are automatically created at the left border, and two at the right border, of the
marquee selection. This provides a quick way to define and create automation data by
converting the marquee selection into automation nodes.
