Cubase SX question

I'm currently using Cubase SL and I was wondering if it's possible to both see, and edit all the midi notes from different tracks in a single piano roll in SX or SX 3 maybe? My new drumming application places all drum parts on seperate tracks so that they have separate piano rolls which which is cool if you're basically just playing back premade loops, but in order to get in there and do some rearranging, it's much easier if all the parts are in a single piano roll. I see that Sonar 4 can do what I've described above, but I'd just like to know if Cubase SX has this cool trick up it's sleeve.

This works in SX 2...
In the Project window, select all the MIDI "events" (the parts/blocks with all the MIDI data in them). Hold shift while clicking more events will add them to the selection.
Then double click, or select menu "MIDI->Open Key Editor" (you can also use the "Score Editor". In the Key Editor you see all the selected MIDI parts combined. When you select a note that belongs a particular project "event" and edit that note, the note is updated in the corresponding project "event".
Happy editing!

Whaddaya know, it works! That's cool. I noticed that when you click on a note, it kind of outlines all the notes which are a part of that midi track which helps you to see what is what. Very cool. Thanks a lot for the tip.
