Hi,
based on suggestions by Robert Hänggi, these are a couple of proposed changes
to the names of tracks read out by screen readers:
1. For audio tracks, if the track is stereo, left, or right, then these words
are spoken immediately after the name of the track. So if you had a track
"intro music", and it was stereo, then it would be read as "intro music
stereo". If the track is mono, then that word isn't spoken.
2. For Label tracks, if the track has its default name - you haven't changed
its original name, then the two words "label track" are spoken after the name
of the track, for example, "track 3 label track". If you change the name of the
track, to for example "labels", then the words "label track" are not spoken.
I know that when changes to track names were raised in the past, there were
concerns about increasing the verbosity too much. I hope that the above changes
may provide valuable information without increasing the verbosity too much.
Any feedback about these changes is welcome, preferably as soon as possible, as
the changes for the next version of Audacity are going to be finalized within
the next few days,
thanks,
David.
