macOS 10.14.6 Audacity 2.2.2 When I export multiple using flac format, the comment tag is empty, though I have entered data in the field in edit:medtadata, and it shows up in other export formats. This is a bug - and my testing shows it still present in 2.3.2 and the latest alpha test builds fpr 2....

You say you were using 2.2.1 - did you us File > Save As rather than File > Save ? There was a nasty bug in 2.2.1 (now fixed for 2.2.3) whereby using Save As could cause the project toi be overwritten wit silence (irrecoverably). You really should upgrade: to the latest 2.3.2 as soon as possible (an...

You're right, Audacity "Doesn't translate MP3 to midi"

I's not intended to - we are an audio editor and not a MIDI editor (there are better tools for that around).

We offer very limited support for MIDI, playback and very restricted editing.

Sorry,

You said that this used to work on your previous version before you upgraded, can you tell me what version that was please? Never mind, I had some spare time for testing - it is a regression on 2.1.3, the bug was introduced in 2.2.0 and contues though to 2.3.2. It is however working properly again ...

What settings do you have in your Device Toolbar ?

2) Edit > Cut (Ctrl + X)

and then you can create a custom keyboard shortcut for that Macro

Looking at the "What's new" page in the 2.3.2 Manual file:///C:/Program%20Files%20(x86)/Audacity%202.3.2/help/manual/man/new_features_in_this_release.html#bugs I note that we fixed this Bug #1899 for that release: https://bugzilla.audacityteam.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1899 Enh: Windows: previou...

I spent ages looking for this enhancement that I logged - totally unsuccessfully ... Then I thought "maybe it did get fixed" - so I did some testing (on 2.3.2 and 2.3.3 alpha test build) - and it looks to be OK. The deleted folder is mo longer created, in its absence Audacity reverts to it...

Back home now so I just tested on my Macbook Pro with Mojave 10.14.6 and with both 2.3.2 and the latest alpha test build that I have for the upcoming 2.3.3 and on both of those this works fine for me.
