[Audacity-devel] re: Keyboard shortcuts

[David T. <sun...@ya...>]

David--

Yes, that page is one that I looked at. The problem is that a number of menu
commands are not included in the Preferences page. "Align Track to Cursor" is
one of them. It is, apparently, not assignable. 

My local help file for 1.2.3 claims that "all of the commands that appear in
Audacity" are included in the preferences dialog, while the online doc to which
you referred identifies "all commands in Audacity that can be triggered," which
is a noticeable difference.

Looking through the XML versus the menus, here are the commands that are
missing from the Preferences list:

1) Set Selection Format submenu
2) Align Tracks submenu
3) Align and Move Cursor submenu
4) Generate submenu
5) Effects entries
6) Analyze submenu

Admittedly, most of these are either not items I'd want to assign to shortcuuts
(e.g., Set Selection Format), or items that Audacity can't assign (such as the
effects, which depend on plug-ins). However, the Align submenus would be useful
to me.

Heck, I would be happy with knowing what the Audacity internal command for
"Align Track to Cursor" was, and hacking it into the preferences XML and seeing
whether I could get it to work.

I hope that clears up my concern.
