Adjust the shelf for a shelf control
When you add a shelf control such as a keyboard to the workspace, it appears at a default angle,
creating a three-dimensional appearance. You can adjust the angle of the shelf control so that it
appears more or less three-dimensional. This can be useful, for example, if you want to see more
of the keys on the keyboard or minimize the amount of space it occupies onscreen.
You can also move the shelf vertically to change its position in the workspace. When you move
the shelf vertically, all screen controls on the shelf (for example, a modulation or pitch bend
wheel and a keyboard) move with the shelf.

guide up.
