Label Track - blank line truncates?

Post by edwinn » Sun Mar 13, 2016 2:06 pm

Have done a LOT with label tracks and sometimes send QUOTES to others via email, etc. This is a BIG feature.. imagine the possibilities. :idea:

Today.. went back to examine some `expert´ commentary and started adding Id's to the labels such as [Pat]; and [Larry]; and then added a BLANK LINE in the file to separate discussion topics.

So.. when loading the new Label TXT file, noticed the LABELS are missing downstream from the BLANK LINE. Is that normal and desirable, or necessary? Is it possible for Audacity to IGNORE blank lines in Label file?

Thanks,

-Ed

Here is the label text file syntax. Manually adding blank lines is not supported. It's a feature request.
