Hi David
The nice thing with navigating on the track panel is that you land on
the nearest label when you move dow with the cursor to a label track.
However, that labels are created automatically when moving down is
simply annoying.
Nothing in Audacity works that way. Ctrl-b and ctrl-m are sufficient
imo, at least if an explicit edit entering key was defined (such as F2
in other programs).
Furthermore, single-character shortcuts do also automatically enter
the edit mode--a known bug.
The label editor would be a nice alternative for us.
However, the disadvantages and short comings are too numerous to list here.
However, I like your idea to force the editor to focus on the nearest
label to the cursor position when entering it--instead of the track
choice.
Regards
Robert
