Selection beyond the end of the file?

Post by crenz » Tue Dec 30, 2008 6:16 pm

I've used Audacity (1.3.6) to cut and fade a few audio files recently, and one thing that bugged me is that I can select audio beyond the end of the file. This is a nuisance e.g. when trying to add a fade to the end of the file. It also makes it hard to select unto the very end of the file, and is a bit inconsistent since I can't go over the beginning of the file in the same way.

Is there an option to turn this behaviour off?

To select up to the end of a track, use Shift + K
