Default My waveforms are unreadable!! Help!

I'm having what appears to be a serious waveform issue in this one session. All the audio waveforms are all fat and unreadble by normal standards and I can no longer see the peaks. I can't edit by looking at transient peaks! This is on previously recorded tracks and tracks I tried to record today to see if the problem would go away. Thinking the session might be corrupted I created a new one and imported everything in....still same issue. Tried different waveform views....can't think of what else it could be.

Is there something else I could try??

Oh thank you....bless you. You know...I've never used that function and must have hit it inadvertantly.

No problem. You can, as you've probably found out, use the other bracket to make them larger again.

Yeah I know! I found that out when I mistakenly hit that one first! I have a PT keyboard cover but this function isn't on it and I can't find it in the manual. Is there a non-shortcut in the drop down menus for this?

No, I believe there are buttons in the one of the corners of the edit window that do this function though.
