This is a known problem, which I think was caused by the updated version of wxWidgets which Audacity uses.

As a workaround, try enabling the setting:
"Preferences > Tracks Behaviors > Use dialog for the name of new label"

Thanks for the tip picpak. I've not tried it myself as I've not yet updated to Catalina, but it sounds like it could be a good workaround. I've "pinned" this topic so that it stays at the top of the macOS forum board for now, so that others can find it easily and say if your workaround wor...
