Much oblliged, but this is not the guide for the current version. I just can't
understand why the Team doesn't offer the entire manual in an easily accessible
offline version.

Hello:
Much of the information asked for here can be found in the manual. However,
the online manual is quite awkward and even rather difficult to work with. I
am looking for an offline manual. Where can one obtain an accessible manual
in any of the following formats: MS Word, RTF, TXT, Epub or PDF? I would
apreciate some assistance.
Many thanks.
Regards,
Daveed Mandell

of a second.
That's good to know as are the other matters discussed in response to
my question. However, the discussion raises, at least for me, another
question.
I would think that Audacity would serve more casual blind users better
if there were specific commands, perhaps function key commands for
moving the cursor in small increments. These commands are available in
goldwave and in
Mp3 Direct Cut. I don't know how many other programs they are found in.
For more casual sighted users of Audacity, they may not be important.
But I expect there are a lot of blind users who won't learn enough
about the program to have the information discussed in this thread.
Audacity should be easy for the more casual user to use and having
equivalent incremental commands as in the very popular Goldwave and
Mp3 Direct Cut may encourage more casual blind users to adopt it.

Hi Gene,
just to add that after importing a file, the zoom level depends on
the length of the file, and so can vary widely.
If you execute the zoom normal command (ctrl+2), then the step size
is set to slightly more than a hundredth of a second. You can then
zoom out or in from there. For example if you zoom out three times
(ctrl+3, three times), then the step size will be just less than a tenth
and
David.

Hello, Gene,
I believe you wrote only about setting the right marker. Without
left marker there isnot a selection. Am I wrong?

The commands don't do what I'm asking about. The point is not to
create a selection, the point is to incrementally adjust a
selection you have already made, changing both the cursor and the
right marker as needed. And the shift left and right arrow
commands don't change the selection incrementally.
As an example of what I am describing, let's say you set the cursor
somewhere in a file. You then set the right marker.
using the listen commands you find that the cursor is a fraction of
a second too far into the file and you find that the right marker
is a fraction of a second before the position you want it to be.
There should be commands that allow you to move each marker
incrementally, by a tiny fraction of a second back or forward.
Pressing the move back or forward command repeatedly would allow
you to move the markers very precisely to where you want them to
be.
this is an essential feature for blind people to be able to edit
precisely.

The set of 4 commands are:
1) Shift + Left
2) Shift + Right
3) Ctrl + Shift + Left
4) Ctrl + Shift + Right.

Gene, do you have the jaws scripts installed, and are you using
windows/jaws?
Asking since think those shift and ctrl + left and right commands
areincluded in the jaws scripts.

I doubt it. Are you talking about commands that change where you
anything,listening in a file while it is playing? I know that the commands
you
gave
can change where you are listening. I don't know what, if
thatthey do
when Audacity is stopped with a file opened. Whatever they may do
when
Audacity is stopped, they don't do what I am asking about. I am
asking
about commands that move the left marker or the cursor, the same
thing, a
tiny increment to the right and left and another set of commands
left.move
the right marker incrementally to the right and left.

Also, does audacity have a command to move a start or end marker
vack
or
forward by a fractional amount so you can not only hear where the
markers
are located, but also move them an incremental amount?

Hello, David,
The new commands as shift-f5 up to shift-f8 are useful additional
ones.
Thanks.
However, the c-command for a play cut preview was useful too.
definedcommand hasnot any
effect in the new version of Audacity, although it has been
selectedas
a
shortcut. How can I repair this?
Kind regards,

selectiontime
range
In Audacity 2.1.1, there are four new playback commands to check
that
you've
selected the time range which you want:
1. To play a short period before selection start, press shift+F5.
2. To play a short period after selection start, press shift+F6.
3. To play a short period before selection end, press shift+F7.
4. To play a short period after selection end, press shift+F8.
Of these commands, shift+F7 to play a short period before
ofend
will
probably be the most useful. It allows you to listen to the end
availablethe
selection without having to listen to the whole selected time
range.
The periods before and after selection start/end share the same
settings as
the play cut preview command (C), and can be set in the playback
category of
Preferences.
These commands are similar to the corresponding commands
in
mp3directcut.
David.
