Controllers Toolbar

The Controllers toolbar contains the basic tools for working with controllers in Track View. This toolbar is hidden by default; to display it, right-click an empty area of the Track View toolbar and choose Show Toolbars Controllers: Track View.

These commands are also available from the Track View Edit menu (and Controller submenu) except for Filters, which is on the View menu.
