Additional Track Drop-down Menu commands
Last modified: 2018-08-20 11:51:34 UTC
Created attachment 429 [details] Add new commands to track drop-down menu Adds the following commands to the track drop-down menus: Move Track to Top Move Track to Bottom Swap Stereo Channels (audio tracks only).
Marked "patch_ready". Note that with the extra menu items, it isn't possible to avoid changing some of the access keys unless we were to group some of the menu items, possibly those for the View Mode. If this patch is accepted then as per http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?p=226492#p226492 it may be worth considering if the Move Track* commands should scroll to the focused track if necessary (as happens if you mouse-drag a track). Alternatively new commands suggested by Steve * View > Selection (zooms and moves to fit as much of the selection as possible in the visible area). * View > Focus (moves to the track that has focus) could be considered.
Removed patch_ready as per Richard's concerns on -devel http://audacity.238276.n2.nabble.com/bug-675-Track-Drop-down-Menu-commands-enhancement-td7560185.html .
(In reply to comment #2) Richard applied subsequent patches, per that thread.

Created attachment 433 [details] Adds the menu commands as previously described Patch made against revision 12803.
Thanks Steve and Richard. I did not notice any ill effects from the refactoring changes in TrackPanel.cpp and TrackPanel.h. On Mac and Windows I built the attached patch which adds the new commands to the drop-down menu and changes a few access keys. I tested without any issues so "patch_ready".
Patch committed. http://code.google.com/p/audacity/source/detail?r=12859
