2. Changes since version 2.1.3:
|
||||
|
||||
Changes and Improvements:
|
||||
|
||||
* Interface:
|
||||
* (macOS) Support for horizontal scroll on Magic Mouse / Trackpad and for
|
||||
Trackpad pinch/expand zoom gestures.
|
||||
* Pinned option on waveform makes waveform move and recording/playing head
|
||||
stay still.
|
||||
* Timer Record options to save/export/exit after recording.
|
||||
* Scrub Ruler and optional Scrub Toolbar.
|
||||
* New shortcuts ALT+RIGHT and ALT+LEFT (move to labels without editing).
|
||||
|
||||
* Effects:
|
||||
* Effects no longer grayed out when paused.
|
||||
* New Distortion effect (replaces Leveller).
|
||||
* SBSMS (higher quality but slower) option on Change Tempo / Change Pitch
|
||||
effects.
|
||||
* New Rhythm Track generator (replaces Click Track).
|
||||
* New Generator for Sample Data Import.
|
||||
* Nyquist effects now significantly faster.
|
||||
|
||||
* Other Changes:
|
||||
* Upgraded the PortAudio library to v19 rev r1966. This gives Audacity
|
||||
Windows 10 support.
|
||||
* (Windows) DirectSound now records 24-bit samples.
|
||||
* (macOS) Audacity.app now has its resources inside it rather than in a
|
||||
separate folder, so installation to /Applications/ is cleaner.
|
||||
* (macOS) Audacity 2.1.3 provides partial support for Sierra. Details at
|
||||
http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Partial_Support_for_Mac_Sierra_in_2.1.3 .
|
||||
Improvements
|
||||
|
||||
Bug fixes:
|
||||
* Four Selectable themes provided, with new 'Light' theme as default,
|
||||
plus option to customize
|
||||
* Many menu changes:
|
||||
* Menus Reorganized
|
||||
* Extended menu bar provided
|
||||
* New keyboard commands for working with clips
|
||||
* Help buttons ? in Preferences, Effects, Generators and Analyzers - and
|
||||
other places
|
||||
* Non-Greying out of effects when no selection (and explanatory dialog
|
||||
with help button)
|
||||
* Playback of MIDI (and Allegro) files imported into Note Tracks is
|
||||
now available.
|
||||
* 'Center' option in Selection Toolbar
|
||||
* Stem plots
|
||||
* Major overhaul to documentation/manual including many new images and
|
||||
streamlined text on landing pages for in-program help.
|
||||
|
||||
Over 60 bugs fixed, including five longstanding bugs.
|
||||
|
||||
Other Changes
|
||||
|
||||
* Append-record is now the default (use Shift + Record for old behavior,
|
||||
to record on a new track)
|
||||
* The Esc key now cancels all click-and-drag actions. It also chooses among
|
||||
overlapping mouse click targets, which is especially useful in the Multi-Tool.
|
||||
* Sync-Lock button removed (use menu item or keyboard shortcut instead)
|
||||
* New preferences and preference pages
|
||||
* Overhaul of much code:
|
||||
* Overhaul of envelope handling code to deal with some anomalies
|
||||
* Overhaul of exception handling for greater safety
|
||||
* New Logo
|
||||
|
||||
Bug Fixes
|
||||
|
||||
* Major work on bug fixing. 198 bugs that were in 2.1.3 were fixed for 2.2.0.
|
||||
* The most serious bug fixed this time round was bug 437 which was
|
||||
about what happens when Audacity is recording and runs out of storage.
|
||||
* Most of the bugs fixed were more minor, such as bug 463 which was
|
||||
about a case in which the numbering on the timeline could display
|
||||
incorrect times.
