In the last version of Audacity, if I inserted or pasted a clip, OR if I highlighted and deleted a second or 2, or ADDED a second or 2 to a track, and then I clicked on the insert line, it would disappear and create a seamless track.
Now if I do that, the point or insertion or the point of edit, is a RED LINE, and if I click on it, it deletes / undoes what I just did.
I have not idea what this is called and I can’t figure out how to change this setting in the preferences.
Can anyone help?
I was happy before this update It is now taking me 2 extra hours per recording since this new update, fixing unwated crap in my file
In Tracks Behaviors Prerferences, uncheck “Enable cut lines”. That will take care of the case when you delete or cut a segment and a red line appears.
There has been a recent change of the behaviour when clicking on the line between clips. It used to join the clips, now it just puts the editing cursor there. You have drag a selection across the line between clips, then do Edit > Audio Clips > Join, or Command+J, or right-click in the selection area and choose Join from the context menu.
