How do I get out of this state?

Post by Light and Sound » Sat Jan 03, 2009 2:08 pm

Fumble Fingers must have pressed crtl instead of shift and put Audacity into some unfamiliar mode:

Does anyone recognize this state? How can I get out of it? Bonus question: What exactly did I press to get into it?

Thanks so much.

All you've done is to right-click in the vertical scaling bar to the ommediate left of the wav-forms in the track. To rectify just left-click in the same place.

It's supposed to do that - it's just changing the scaling for you.

Fooled me too the first time it happened to me :)
