my current theme is beginning to suffer from Reaper updates I think, hence looking for a new one earlier than I need.
but strange..
I didn't look for the view route before admitting to a red face but I cant see 'View: Toggle mixer visable'. I guess that could be a symptom of the above. I can just drag the mixer down in my current theme - which seems not to be in the stash anymore.
I did discover CTRL+M while sifting through stuff. Didn't know that - :shame: :redface: again ... ah well
thanks for the posts
