Is there a quick way to raise or lower part of automation? In Live, you can select part of the automation and use mouse direct drag the selected part up or down. In Logic, you can select part of the automation and use a command to create 4 points and drag to move. But in BWS I couldn't find any quick way to do that.

use the Object or Time Selection tools (#1 or 2 on qwerty kb) to select a range of automation and click-drag up/down in the Value field up (in the Inspector).

Thanks for the reply, but that is not what I'm looking for. Changing value in Inspector only works for existing points. If the part I selected contains no points, the Inspector shows nothing.

yea it's not ideal. some possible workarounds:
with the Time Selection tool, drag a selected area up/down to create points. problem is, it only makes 1 point per edge, not 2, so you end up creating unwanted slopes before and after the selection.
or you could use the pencil tool (hold alt when drawing to snap to current grid size) and then use the Value field in inspector.

Try holding CTRL and click-dragging a whole segment.

Yeah, this is the only workaround for now. Not very comfortable but working.

I hope there could be a quick way to do that. It seems no one mentioned this before. But it is very important. For example, If you want to lower or raise delay's mix automation for a clip. It is a very common operation.
