Add screen controls to a layout
Add common screen controls
In Layout mode you can quickly add screen controls to your layout and arrange them in
the workspace.
You can drag screen controls into the workspace in any order. If you plan to perform with a
keyboard controller, you might want to rst drag a keyboard screen control into the workspace,
position it near the center, and then drag screen controls for the faders, knobs, wheels, buttons,
and other physical controls on the keyboard controller.

As you drag the screen control to the workspace, a white outline appears, showing where it
will be added. You can use the alignment guides to align the screen control with other items in
the workspace.

hardware assignments and other parameters for the screen control appear in the Screen Control
Inspector to the left of the workspace. Dierent types of screen controls have dierent
parameters, which are described in Edit screen control parameters on page 113 .
