I am new to Garageband, and hopefully the answer to this is obvious! I have Garageband 10.1.4. I've been recording a song in songwriter and I am having trouble extending the track beyond about five minutes, the display of tracks just seems to come to a dead end. I have seen some posted solutions to this problem that indicate you drag something at the top right of the display but I can't find whatever it is.
GarageBand 10, OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)
There is a tiny triangle in the bar with the measures. Drag that to enlarge the number of measures.
This triangle may be hiding behind the zoom slider. In that case zoom out, until you are seeing this triangle.
You may need to scroll the window to the right. Try to scroll the track area, even if you did not enable the scroll bars to show. There may be a hidden scroll bar at the bottom of the window.
..I think I've cracked it, has taken a while, Garageband! If I click at the top of the track area precisely on the scale at the left top corner of the dark grey stripe a little white bracket thing appears, and then it is possible to drag this (and also the triangle appears - it seems that it is completely obscured by the slider, however it is set.) Is it me or could this be better designed?
I still can't see the little triangle, although it is clear in the screen shot examples. The darker grey section on the right of the track area is narrower on my screen than in the screen shots, and the slider covers the top of that, however it is set. I've tried zooming in and out, and scrolling right and left and up and down. Nothing! Thanks for your help, any ideas?
