From what I saw - in SM included sliders (non-vector) - you can only adjust the mouse activation areas (red dashed lines in slider properties). But - you can create and load your own sized bitmaps (tracking line and slider knob) and then - adjust the mouse areas to whatever is on your pictures. And then resize your slider in front panel to what you have inside. Took me a while too to get this, but in principle it is simple. Good luck!

Then let me try to explain it a bit further. 🙂

A vector slider is painted with gfx primitives. It can hence be resized as you please. A picture slider on the other hand derive it's look and feel from pictures, and thus cannot be resized so easily. Resizing images might be possible, but resizing them may introduce distorted anomalies in the images.

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
