my vote would be for the following: 1. Don't actually change the functionality at all, but make the buttons carry the correct icon. 2. The "play from start" button should have a "play from start" icon on it. 3. The "pause" button should switch to a "play" icon while in the paused state. (Note that ...

Another thought - we have some capable programmers here… How about if we be a little smarter in the code; as proposed, give user the ability to turn off the "save changed" nag (hiding it behind some "advanced" shield if desired) only for "not very dirty" Projects (defined minimally as having importe...

Would Steve or Gale be willing to commit an experimental (may be in a separate branch) Might this not be better in your own fork of Audacity, Ed? Sorry I don't Git (ugg - sorry 4 the pun) it! I was unable to get Git to work on my Win7 box and I am not developing for anything past Audacity 2.0. My c...

I may play with a panel... I can't figure out how to hide the panel from the tree on the left and I have not figured out how to make the new button open the panel. I already have the code working in Audacity 2.0 to honor this checkbox but, as tcbrack points out, discerning "dirty" can be accomplish...
