Change playhead grid in play mode?

When I am in play mode, I can move the playhead position by using the Num + and -, but how do I control what the grid size is here? It jumps almost a full measure each time.

There is an icon in the lowest left-hand corner of the screen that governs the grid

I tried this, but it has zero effect on the Num+ and Num- buttons.

Hi @bill0287,

  • the Rewind and Fast Forward commands (that you an use with a shortcut or using the double arrow icons in the Big Transport window), seems to move the playhead by a half note:

  • If you need a more precise movement, you can use the key Commands Previous Frame and Next frame:


  • If you need to move the selection to the previous/next bar, you can use the Key Command Command(Control)+left or right arrow, and then press P to start playback from there.
