Adjust default vertical height display

Post by roga » Fri Apr 22, 2011 2:57 pm

Having just downloaded 1.13 I note that the default vertical height of the audio track display is much larger that previously. This means that to see both stereo waveforms I have to Ctrl+Shft+F

OK not the end of the world, but is there anywhere i can adjust either the default height for a new track, or automatically do the equivalent of Ctrl+Shft+F when I start a new project?

regards

A single stereo track will usually fit with ease on the default layout. Are you using a tiny screen?

You can set Audacity to automatically "fit to screen" in Preferences:
"Edit menu > Preferences > Tracks"

Thanks: that did the trick

BTW not a tiny screen, but I do have a couple of other windows up, and, at least on my setup, 1.3.13 has slightly different display defaults to 1.3.12
