Description Steve Daulton 2015-10-06 09:31:53 UTC
The options/preferences for the Mixer Toolbar (clicking on the little black arrow near the microphone / loudspeaker icon) is currently called "Preferences", which is confusing terminology as we also have "Meter Preferences" in "Edit > Preferences > Interface".

I think it would be less confusing to reserve the name "Preferences" for the Preferences that are in "Edit > Preferences" and to rename the Meter Toolbar options "Options".

Tests OK on the three platforms. Thanks to Steve for the idea.

An documentation in the Manual suitably updated - image and text
Comment 4 Gale Andrews 2016-07-16 09:14:38 UTC
Corrected bug title to "Meter Toolbar".
