I just noticed that in the Noise Removal dialog, it seems like I can input settings with the keyboard, but I can't. The sliders react appropriately, and the numbers change, but the effect runs with the default settings instead. Only if I move the sliders with the mouse does it have an effect. I would have thought I'd have noticed this before now, so I thought maybe it's new with 1.3.6, but I tested in 1.3.5d and it's the same way. Maybe I just never tried inputting the settings by keyboard before. Anyway, not a big deal, and I don't know how many other people (if any) this affects, but I thought I'd mention it. For a while there, I thought Noise Removal was broken altogether. --Allen

Noise Removal does have something of a personality. Some Mac users can not use Noise Removal at all because pieces of the tool are or appear to be missing. We are paying attention to this this. I will try your problem here.

Yes, that's perfectly correct. It doesn't work in 1.3.5, 1.3.6, or experimental 1.3.7.

Koz

Oh, and one correction. When I enter numbers from the keyboard, only the Reduction and Frequency sliders follow me. Attack never moves. The only way to actually change any of the three values is with the sliders.

Thanks for looking into it, Koz. Good to know I'm not the only one. And I hadn't noticed the thing about attack time, but you're right; that's true for me too. --Allen

"Settings entered in the text input boxes not being applied" is true on Windows also - but you can control the settings with the mouse (at least on Windows) by tabbing into the slider and using the arrow keys. We'll note this one.

Thanks
