You have to adjust the global swing amount number, er, it's up in the left top corner by the click and tempo, sorry I don't have ableton in front of me.

In Live, each clip (in clip properties) has the option to swing by 8ths, 16ths, or 32nds. If you select any of these, other than Straight where there is no swing, and then you dial up the global swing (next to the tempo at the top) then your clip will swing.

If you want a different swing for that clip, you'll have to manually do it, either by editing the midi or by editing the warp markers.

On the off chance you were talking about a different kind of "swinging", I have no idea about that, but this might help:

ohhh mannn....

that's what people don't get about nudists, it's ALWAYS the ones you don't want to see naked that get nekkid.

if Live swung like that there'd be nothing but wrinkles in the audio.
