This can improve progress count for Nyquist effects
that do not process all of selection (bug 558) and provides some
protection against 2^31 overflow issues (bug 439).
... by passing invalid frequency values,
rather than by checking the 'view property in each effect.
Spectral editing is now permitted only for appropriate track view types.
But I would suggest reconsideration of the exact conditions in which we do
this.
... rather, selections up to half of the maximum of project rate and all track
rates is permitted.
Also added some more cautions to the Nyquist code for spectral selection
effects, in case input frequencies exceed Nyquist for the track (as they
may now do).
I've added some of the new plugin stuff to LV2, Nyquist, and
Vamp so that they play better in the new system. They no
longer get bunched in with the Audacity effects when sorting
or grouping the menus. They have not been fully converted
but they should be good for 2.1.0.
Nyquist plugins now include ";author" and ";copyright"
statements.
Added the 4 new Nyquist plugins to the Windows build.
Audiounits are still coming...had to push them to the back
burner to get this other stuff out of the way.
Scanning for new plugins has been improved so that newly
discovered ones will be shown to the user when Audacity starts.
Effects menu sorting has been fixed and improved.
Disabling effect types in Preferences works again and you
no longer have to restart Audacity for them the change to work.
Effect usage in chains works again.
Plugin registration dialog code simplified a bit.
Group names in the pluginregistry are now base64 encoded. I
never really thought about it, but wxFileConfig group names
are case insensitive and since I was using the group name as
the plugin ID, I ran into a conflict on Linux where there
were two plugins with the same name, just different case. (And
they were different plugins.) Hoping all of this will change
when/if the config file gets converted to XML. (wx3 if finally
including XML support)
A fair amount of cleanup of this new code has been done and
will continue as more stuff is converted.
This relies on three new nyquist scripts to actually do the editing. The peak-snapping code in FrequencyWindow has been extracted into a new class, SpectrumAnalyst, to provide peak-snapping in spectrogram too.
