Retain clip name in 3.6

Audacity 3 Help Forum
1

I’ve noticed that in 3.6, moving a clip to another track by default renames that clip with the name of the track.

For example, if I have “track 1” and “track 2” with a clip on track 2 called “breakbeat,” cutting and pasting that clip to track one renames the clip “track 1.”

Previous versions retained the original clip name. Is there way to do this in 3.6? I don’t see anything obvious in Preferences.

Thanks!!!

It is an undocumented change, and I’d guess it is unintended (a bug). I’ll log it as a bug and we can watch to see what the developers say.
