Does anyone know if you can toggle track heights?
For some reason, this aspect of the interface is really niggly.
I'd like to just resize track heights by a single click or such-like. Instead of having to drag the heights which gets a little annoying when you start to accumulate larger number of tracks in a project...

Re: Toggle Track Heights?
No, but you can select all or groups and change en masse. You can also make them all the same size en masse by dragging them closed, then open again (or some such).
Re: Toggle Track Heights?
Yes you can, press H to fit the tracks height to screen.
U to expand/collapse the selected track(s).

Re: Toggle Track Heights?
This isn't quite what I had in mind. What I was looking for was a single click to maximize the target track alone.
I find that adjusting track heights in the arrangement view is a total pain, especially as the track number increases in a project. I know about the global change using H and W. And holding down
I think there is no such function for what I want to do. the only quick method is to right-click on the track header, select all content then hit the z key to zoom...
Will have to do for now I guess : )

I think Live is basically optimized for live performance with low track counts. Lots of things make more sense when viewed in that light. Once you're facile with the methods, you tend to forget about it and appreciate the KISS philosophy. Not always, mind you...
