Can only select in second intervals?

Post by Shinami » Tue Mar 08, 2011 4:24 am

I feel a bit stupid for asking this, since it's probably something easy to fix, but I can't figure it out. Plain and simple, for some reason I can only select in one second intervals on my 1.3 Beta. It's really annoying, because just a few weeks ago I could select whatever I wanted. I might have pressed a button - the change happened when I was syncing various sound tracks and my computer was running slow. Any solutions so I don't have to go through uninstalling and reinstalling?

At the bottom of your work window, do you have "Snap To" selected? Deselect it. You may need to restart Audacity.

Ah, thank you! That solved it and was really simple - I didn't even notice I had that selected. Thanks!
