Re: View horizontal help lines

how I can go about placing a Vote for this feature You just say so on this forum. I have added your vote. Personally, I roughly adjust envelopes by eye, and then tweak them by ear to get the desired effect. Just as a quick thought experiment: Imagine if Audacity did have grid lines, and you adjuste...

The Audacity documentation assumes that package builders build Audacity according to the in...
