Yes, but clicking to reposition is mentioned here as if it were a missing feature when in fact it exists. So, the description of the desirable new feature should be shorter.

I was talking about scrubbing, or the lack of it, with some other users. From http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Feature_Requests#Highest-rated : Scrubbing: (68 votes) - one of: Basic functionality: Drag playback position left/right while playing (no effect until drop), or just click to skip to new p...

What'd be great for all concerned, would be a "favorites" section at least, with "more..." listed below. (It'd also be nice if the names were a bit more descriptive in most cases). wysocki said that years ago, I see, and I like that idea. I was thinking lately of the lack of context menus for selec...

Those frequency settings aren't de-essing any more! It sounds like you are using it as a band limiter instead to change a mix without having separate tracks. Interesting to see novel uses. For fun, subtract the original from the modified signal, by inverting the original and mixing. In the residue, ...

You might not want to document it, but try this: Generate a tone of exactly 2 minutes and amplitude 1.0. Select all and do this in Nyquist Prompt: (prod s (pwev 1.0 1.0 (db-to-linear -120.0))) Now you have something decaying exponentially at exactly 1 dB per second. Then look at the spectrogram. To ...

Or more precisely, the NEGATIVE of that value!

The one page does point to the other for Preferences, but it isn't explained that there are red, magenta, and pale blue colors evenly spaced along the dB scale between "Gain" and "Gain - Range". I figured that out by playing and later confirmed that is how the code also works. "Gain" is just where w...

Hey wait! That should say

[...] below the value set for 'Gain'.

It's there, in the descriptions of Gain and Range preferences for Spectrograms. Perhaps better explanation is needed. http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/spectrograms_preferences.html I figured out from playing around that with default settings, 0 to -20 dB is indistinguishably white, -100 and belo...
