Play Script
Play the tune script

Auto Script
Switch this on && tune instructions get automatically added to script...

The instructions are added automatically whenever you change a parameter, check box etc - or just click on a control if it affects the tune.

They are added at the current editing position in the script. If necessary duplicate instructions are also added to the time 0 section of the script - this is done if the editing position is at a later time. ,

Adding copies of an instruction to the time 0 section as it was before you change it makes sure the tune plays the same way every time you play the script.

You can auto script all the tune ids in a window. To do this, use Alt + click anywhere in the window with this option switched on. Alternatively use Caps lock physically held down + click.

If this option is switched on when you open all the values for a window from Organise Windows | Reopen, then all the tune ids in the window, hidden or otherwise are auto scripted. They are also auto scripted when you do a reset of them all from the Organise windows window.

Zones...
Set a play list of fractal tunes, or set tempo changes...

Unlike a normal play list, these fractal tunes become part of the tune you are working on. You can open the original files into this tune, but once you do so, they then become part of this tune, and if you change the original it will have no more effect.

Click for help for this window. Or F1. Other opts: Shift, Alt, Ctrl + click...

F1 or click shows the help for the current window in your web browser.

Some windows may have no help yet in which case the help icon is shown crossed out with a red line.

Ctrl + F1 or Ctrl + click takes you to the list of keyboard shortcuts for Tune Smithy.

Alt + F1 or Alt + click (alternatively Caps lock physically held down + F1 or Click) takes you to the on-line page at the robertinventor.com web site about the current main window task - which gives a short introduction to it for newbies to the program. If there is no on-line page specific to a task, takes you to the main tune smithy page on the web site.

Since the help for Tune Smithy is currently a bit out of date and needs to be redone completely for the new 3.0 release, then you may find the on-line page for some of the newer tasks particularly useful.
