Ext-Command Menu - Audacity Development Manual

# Ext-Command Menu

From Audacity Development Manual

The Ext-Command Menu (Extended Command Menu) provides access to extra commands for track focus and movement of the editing or playback cursor that are not available in the default Audacity menus. These will be of most interest to visually-impaired users or those who have difficulty using the mouse.

Shortcuts can be assigned to these commands if required.

This menu can be turned on (or off) at View > Extra Menus (on/off) or the Interface pane of Preferences.

  Click, or hover, on any menu item in the image to read about that command. Skip the image
