    <para>
      A region has several areas in its on-screen representation:
    </para>

    <itemizedlist>
      <listitem>
        <para>
          the waveform (the majority of the region's display area, normally)
        </para>
      </listitem>

      <listitem>
        <para>
          the trim bar (the colored bar below the waveform)
        </para>
      </listitem>

      <listitem>
        <para>
          the name (in the trim bar, text)
        </para>
      </listitem>

      <listitem>
        <para>
          the fade handles (small squares that default to the upper left +
          right corners)
        </para>
      </listitem>

      <listitem>
        <para>
          the fade shape (filled or empty curves representing fade in + fade
          out)
        </para>
      </listitem>

      <listitem>
        <para>
          the gain envelope (hidden by default)
        </para>
      </listitem>
    </itemizedlist>

    <para>
      Mouse operations on each area will do different things.
    </para>

      will stay at the same position in time if dragged up and down and they
      will stay at the same value if dragged sideways.
