| Subject: [Audacity-help] several suggestions
| I was using the 1.3 Beta and the 1.2.6 stable version and several
| things occurred to me. Hope they are helpful.
| label editing - right arrow at end of label jumps to edit of next
| label (simlar to the way a text editor jumps to the start of a tab
| after reaching the end of text/spaces before the tab).
| Cntl+right/left arrow = jump to next label...
| Add Goto Next/Previous buttons in Label track "header" (blank space
| where +/- values are for audio tracks). Could be a "<<" and ">>"
| with "Goto Next" and "Goto Previous" tooltips.
TAB key moves forward to the next label and SHIFT + TAB moves back.
| Also, what about some custom combination effects?
| For example: Silence + edit length to [x] seconds...could have more
| than one, of course: Custom 1, 2, & 3.
This would probably be better handled by Effect Chains (File > Edit Chains in
1.3.3) but this has yet to be extended to commands under the Edit Menu,
and is currently used solely for effects.
| Add Function key to tooltips if applicable ...EX: "Envelope Tool (F2)"
I suspect this is not practical as the tooltip could not be dynamically changed
in the same way that a menu can if the user changes the associated hotkey
on the Keyboard tab of Preferences. Whether the Status Bar could do so I
am not sure. I will add a suggestion that the hotkey for buttons could be
made more discoverable in the interface, and your idea of buttons in the
Panel of the Label Track to navigate between labels, to the "Interface Tweaks"
section of our user-editable Feature Requests page:
http://audacityteam.org/wiki/index.php?title=Feature_Requests
Feel free to visit that page and add your vote for any other ideas there that
you feel would enhance Audacity.
