Hi,

I love audacity! thanks for making it so great and so free!!

So ive been using it for a few months now, but ive come across a problem with the Selection Tool.
When i use the selection tool now, i can only select (highlight) blocks of audio in 1 second intervals. I used to be able to select a variable amount like a sliding scale. Any ideas whats going on?

Turn off the Snap To - see bottom left of the Audacity window.

It was easy - but it's only ever easy when you know how ... :)

Glad that fixed it for you - and don't worry, it catches a lot of folk out.
