Hi I have bought Sound Forge 11 but there is a giant overview bar on top of every window. It is a duplicate of what is in the main window and it is very confusing. I have no need of it and I really need the extra screen space so I'd like to get rid of it. How do I turn it off? I've checked the Help file and couldn't find anything there, or in Preferences or in the View menu. Thanks!! Scott |

I don't understand what you are seeing. Please post a screenshot. |

It's not a duplicate - well, it is if the main event is fully zoomed out. If you've zoomed in at all it shows where the section you are looking at is wrt the whole file. Haven't got my SF11 handy, but presumably it's a setting in the View menu, or Options|Preferences|Display . geoff Message last edited on8/11/2013 7:58:22 PM byGeoff_Wood. |

From the menu at the top of your screen, click Options, then Data Window, and unselect the features you don't want on your data window (such as the overview bar). To do this for all future data windows, select Set as Default. |

Perhaps the OP (scott2eh) is referring to is the (new to SF11) 'Overview bar', an overall timeline waveform just above the ruler and editing waveform.. If that's the case, it can be switched off in the "Options> Data Window" as Brothership described. Uncheck 'Overview' to hide it. Otherwise scott2eh should take a screenshot so we may see exactly what is being seen. |

That's it!! Perfect!! Thanks!!! I've never looked at all the options in the Options menu. I always assumed they all would be in Preferences. Also, it wasn't in the help file, or not when searching for the Overview Bar. Thanks again! Scott |
