+ Tracks are selected by clicking on the Track header at the left + of the Editor window. You can select multiple tracks with Left clicks, or a range of consecutive tracks with Left. +

+

+ By default, selecting regions has no impact on + track selection. + You can select a track, then select a region in another track + (or vice versa) and both selections will co-exist happily. + Operations that are applied to tracks will use the track selection, + and those that apply to regions will use the region selection. + Similarly, deselecting a region will not deselect the track it + is in (if that track was selected). +

+

+ In some workflows, and particularly if you have experience with + other DAWs, this + is not the most comfortable way to work. You may prefer to work + in a style where selecting a region will also select the track + that the region is in. Similarly, when the last selected region + in a track is deselected, the track will also become unselected. +

+

+ To control this behaviour, set Edit > + Preferences > Editor > Link selection of regions and tracks. +
