Undo [Ctrl/Cmd-Z] Reverses the last action taken.
Redo [Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-Z; Ctrl/Cmd-Y] Cancels the undo.
Undo History
- RX features an Undo History window, which logs a detailed list of all actions taken, and lets you navigate through them.
Cut[Ctrl/Cmd-X] Removes the currently selected audio and stores it temporarily on the Clipboard.
Copy [Ctrl/Cmd-C] Makes a copy of the currently selected audio and places it on the Clipboard.
Paste[Ctrl/Cmd-V] Places audio that has been copied or cut to the Clipboard at the current cursor point.

- Mix [Shift-V] Combines the audio from the Clipboard with audio in the project

Select Harmonics [Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-H] Refines the current selection to include more harmonics. For this feature to work well, try it with a simple selection that includes only the fundamental harmonic of what you are trying to select.
You can also use the Magic Wand tool to automatically refine a selection to include the appropriate harmonics.
Begin Selection at Playhead [Left Bracket] during playback only If audio is currently selected, this will automatically adjust the selection to begin at the current playback position.

Silence [Delete on a frequency, time-frequency, or freeform selection] Deletes selected audio and replaces it with silence.
Trim to Selection [Ctrl/Cmd-T] Deletes all audio except for the selected audio.
Add Marker or Region [M] This will create a new marker point at the current location of the cursor/playhead or create a new region if any audio is selected.

Follow Playhead [Ctrl/Cmd+P]: Toggles whether or not the current view follows the playhead position during playback.
- In Page mode, the view will follow the playhead one view length at a time.
- In Continuous mode, the view is centered on the playhead as it moves across the file.
Effect Overlays: This sub-menu allows you to turn special display features for the De-clip and Spectral Repair [STD & ADV] modules on and off.For an overlay to be visible, you need to have the option selected in the view menu, and the corresponding module window needs to be open.
