Description Cliff Scott 2019-03-18 14:41:00 UTC

Somehow doing an append record to a collapsed track causes the Expand arrow in the track panel to not function. The expand arrow functions normally once the track is expanded by Cmd + Shift + F or by dragging the track window.

I realize that this is somewhat of an edge case, but it is a bug thus the P2.

This is a regression on Audacity 2.2.2 that first appears in 2.3.0.

I suspect it may be in all OS, but just put the Mac for now until others verify which others it affects if any.

Happens on W10 too - so assume "All" platforms

Tests good on MacOS 10.13.6, High Sierra.

Tested on W10 with audacity-2.3.2-alpha-193-8dace29abaeaa43b9849bd5d96d5d85b49b3bf4e

This now works properly as intended with the Expand track being honored

Working for me on Linux.
