Description Peter Sampson 2019-05-31 11:02:23 UTC
The "Q" key shortcut for "Toggle Spectral Selection is not in the Standard set.

This does not make sense as now we have spectral selection turned "on" by default.

And note that the Manual states on this page:  https://alphamanual.audacityteam.org/man/Spectral_Selection#toggling
>Press the shortcut {{Shortcut|Q}} key to change from the last selected 
>spectral selection …


So the user expectation is that this "Q" shortcut should be available in the default set - i.e. the Standard set.


This is a regression on 2.1.2

testing on W10 with audacity-2.3.3-alpha-286-582d8afdcb54aa921d29310368d854ec308e65ae
