Default How to switch the GUI?

Running Reaper 4.20

I was fooling around a bit, and somehow, I managed to switch my GUI view so that the MAIN window (with all the options on top) switched to the edit window instead of the mixer window.

I can still open the mixer window, but now it's an ADDITIONAL window, on top of the edit window, and without any top-options showing.

Is there a simple way to switch this back?


-thanks.

I don't know how to do a screen grab on a pc. (I'm a Mac guy.)

Can someone just figure this out from what I wrote? It's pretty well explained.

I want the mix window to be the MAIN window, the one that shows when you first launch & there's only one window on the screen.

1. On the PC keyboard: press "PRINT SCR" ("Druck")
2. Open any graphics program and press STRG-V or use the PASTE function
3. Save to HD
4. upload somewhere ( http://www.imgbox.de )

What's the mix window? The mixer/MCP?

What's the main window? The arrange view/TCP?

If you'd have used the right terminology I could've helped you so no, it's not well explained, that's why I asked for a screenshot, don't you think?

Please do what WOK! says and post an screenshot, thanks.

Thanks, but I'll just live with it.

I don't have any graphics programs (my pc is stripped for DAW-only) and I don't use any servers, so ...

I appreciate you're taking the time to try, though.

Not necessarily. Let's see if we can do it with this screenshot:



Which are your edit, main and mixer windows there?
