So for 2.2.1 we have changed that menu entry to be File > Export. Bug Fixes - * Major work on bug fixing. 198 bugs that were in 2.1.3 were fixed for 2.2.0. - * The most serious bug fixed this time round was bug 437 which was - about what happens when Audacity is recording and runs out of storage. - * Most of the bugs fixed were more minor, such as bug 463 which was - about a case in which the numbering on the timeline could display - incorrect times. + * Release 2.2.1 is mainly a maintenance release. + Soon after the release of 2.2.0 we discovered some problematical bugs in Audacity: + Bug #1767 - Opening a second project from Mac's Finder produces a second + inaccessible instance of Audacity + Bug #1770 - Crash applying certain chain files + Bug #1783 - Preview fails when selection extends before zero + Bug #1787 - Auto-scroll stopped working in 2.2.0 + Bug #1765 - Using File > Open to import audio gives wrong zoom level + and no scroll bar slider + + See also: https://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Release_Notes_2.2.1 + and: https://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/New_features_in_Audacity_2.2.1 - See also: https://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Release_Notes_2.2.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -3.
