#### add logic script

A new logic script can be added via "+" -> "Automation" -> "Logic Script". It is recommended to give the logic scipt a meaningful name.
The name can be changed at any time and the logic script can be moved to a different position in the object tree using drag & drop.
Alternatively, the creation can be done directly at the desired position via "right click" -> "Add object" -> "Automation" -> "Logic Script".
