In version 4.7 of Ardour it was possible to detach the transport section and hide it somewhere in the background. Is there a way to do it in version 5? I tried with detached editor and mixer, but then I miss the menu bar and Alt+M does not work either.
This is not possible anymore. It was a deliberate decision. We apologize for those people whose working style is negatively affected, but we don’t believe, for now, that the option to do this was a good one for the majority of users, and led to confusion.
