Hi Folks, I’m using FMOD Studio V1.10.08, with Windows 10, and the vertical channels in the Mixer are too narrow, which prevents me from accessing sends and reading channel names. I don’t see a way to change a channel’s width, like you’re able to do with Event tracks. I’ve opened a few different projects, and all of them have the same issue. The issue is also present in 1.10.10. Any thoughts? Thanks, Matt ![FMOD_Channel_Strips](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/fmod/original/1X/6cad1db7f3f52bf8ec6a41f6981837d273eccb66.png) ---

It looks like you’ve turned on compact strips. To turn off compact strips, select “View \> Show Compact Strips” or press the “C” key. ---

Hi Joseph, Thank you for the response. Such an obvious thing. Regards, Matt
