Updating Window Configurations

After you recall a stored Window Configuration, you can make changes to the window layout and window settings, and then update the stored Window Configuration with your changes. You can do this manually, or you can have Pro Tools automatically update the active configuration.

To manually update a Window Configuration, do one of the following:

Choose Window > Configurations > Update Active Configuration.

The active Window Configuration updates to include any changes to its included properties (Window Layout and Window Display Settings).

– or – 

From the Window Configuration List pop-up menu, choose Update <Name>.

The selected Window Configuration updates with any changes to its included properties.

To have Pro Tools automatically update the active Window Configuration, do one of the following:

Select Window > Configurations > Auto-Update Active Configuration.

– or – 

From the Window Configuration List pop-up menu, select Auto-Update Active Configuration.

When Auto-Update Active Configuration is selected, the active Window Configuration updates with every change to the Window Layout and Window Display Settings.

Window Configurations that do not include Window Layout and only store Window Display Settings cannot be made active and thus won't automatically update. If you want to update a Window Configuration with changes to the Window Display Settings (such as the width of the Clip List in the Edit window), use the Update command in the Window Configuration List.
