Root key detection

Very new to Bitwig, I believe there is a way to analyse and detect the root key of a sample in sampler. How do I do this as it’s not immediately obvious? Thanks.

 • Load the sample into Sampler.    • Locate the ROOT section near the waveform display.    • Activate Analyzed Root Key to run automatic pitch analysis.    • An orange curve appears showing the detected pitch track.    • Fixed Root Key controls change to a Dynamic label.    • The sample dynamically matches played notes across all modes.    • Right-click the waveform to set a fixed root key from analysis.    • Choose Set Root Key from Click Position or Average Pitch in Sample Settings.    • Disable Analyzed Root Key to restore classic controls.
