Re: Reduce or increase pitch WITH preserving duration

Just by curiosity, would there be a way to use rubberband via a nyquist code ? No, but If you have access to a Linux operating system, there is a LADSPA version of RubberBand that works with Audacity. I've just run a quick test, and Audacity's Change Pitch effect seems to give better sound quality.

Re: How large filel can audacity handle

WAV format has a 4GB limit (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WAV#Limitations)
If you want to keep a lossless copy that is bigger than that, export as FLAC or RF64. (FLAC format is the same quality as WAV and RF64, but only about 60% of the file size).

Please write in proper sentences. I doubt anyone here is interested in wasting their time trying to fathom what you are writing about.

Re: 'Failed to disconnect from DDE server' popup

Did you obtain Audacity via the Audacity website (https://www.audacityteam.org/download/windows/) or somewhere else? Audacity doesn't use a DDE server, so either you have a modified version of Audacity, or something else is interfering with Audacity. Is your anti-virus up to date? When did you last ...

Re: Label disappears after paste - version 2.3.2

If you want to paste audio only, ensure that only the audio track is selected.
No, it's not a bug.

Re: why are labels deleted

There's an option in Preferences:
"Edit menu > Preferences > Interface => Retain labels if selection snaps to a label"
Enable that option.

That's about as good as it gets.
It is impossible to fully compensate for a fade out, because at the "silent end" of the fade there is nothing to restore (it's "silent").

Re: UI graphics: Waveform anti-aliasing

Waveform anti-aliasing was ruled out a long time ago because it conveys less information, requires more processing power, and slows down rendering. "Subpixel rendering" has been considered, but to date the developers have not had time to implement it. One of the lead developers did produce...
