[Audacity-devel] new track-quick mix behaviour change

[Anthony A. O. <Ant...@ep...>]

I'm rolling around in the "Editing Vocal Tracks" tutorial, and there's a
behaviour that despratly needs changing(and it's easy too).

When SPLITTING or DUPLICATING, the new track should be added beaneath the one
where the material is selected. Everything else is highly confusing, as a user
may wonder if Audacity has done anything at all as the only visual proof of
actual execution of the command can lie in the vertical scrollbar of the window,
IF the project has more than two or three tracks already.

The same goes for Quickmix, which might create its track where the user is
actualy looking.

Is this change easy enough to implement for 0.9x-1.0 ? I'd like to include a few
small tips that include "Just split it a way, move it around, then Quickmix back
together". It would be helpful to the user, not to have to travel with
scrollbars to find the material and then UP,UP,UP,UP the track before the user
can continue :).

A saturday thought. A happy weekend. It's not for sleep you know.
