<H2>Key bindings in the visualisation window</H2>

The visualisation window also has some associated key bindings. These are
as follows:
<P><DL><DT><B>Left arrow key</B><DD> - increase the frequency with which the visualisation
is updated relative to ticks of the synthesis engine. This causes the
visual animation to become slower but smoother. If updating is already
occurring on every tick of the synthesis engine then an additional
press of this key pauses the whole synthesis engine until the right arrow key
is pressed.
<DT><B>Right arrow key</B><DD> - decrease the frequency with which the visualisation
is updated relative to ticks of the synthesis engine. This causes the
visual animation to become faster but less smooth as more computational
resources are given over to the synthesis engine itself. This key also takes
the synthesis engine out of <EM>pause mode</EM> if it has been paused.
<DT><B>Up arrow key</B><DD> - increase the amplitude of the waves depicted in the
visualisation.
<DT><B>Down arrow key</B><DD> - decrease the amplitude of the waves depicted in the
visualisation.
<DT><B>I key</B><DD> - toggle display of instrument names. This can be useful if
the visualisation becomes too cluttered with information.
<DT><B>D key</B><DD> - toggle display of device names.
<DT><B>ESC key</B><DD> - exit the synthesis, closing the visualisation window.
