Description of problem: The Track Pop-Down Menu either does not appear or appears only very occasionally when clicking in the track title. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): audacity-1.2.3-5 How reproducible: 99%. I can occasionally get the menu to appear when clicking on the track title whilst another application's window has focus (i.e. audacity is behind another window). Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start audacity 2. Create a new track of any type, or import audio to create a track 3. Click the track name Actual results: The track name button receives the click (i.e. changes to "pressed") but the menu does not appear. Expected results: The Track Pop-Down Menu should appear. Additional info: This may perhaps be a wxGTK2 bug.
Cannot reproduce. Double-click works for me.
You are correct - doubleclick does work. This is, therefore, a documentation bug: the help file definitely says "The Track Pop-Down Menu appears when you click in a track's title." Single-click was also, I am sure, the behavior in earlier versions.
I don't think we should correct bugs in the documentation ourselves, so please file a bug upstream.
I don't the the menu is supposed to be a double-click menu. All previous versions of Audacity, and when I compile 1.2.3 from source, have a single-click for this menu. How does what is packaged in Extras differ from upstream? Perhaps it is related to the "--with gtk1" compile-time option? When I build from source (upstream), I get gtk1-looking widgets (and single click track menus). When I run the Extras version, I get gtk2-looking widgets (and double-click track menus).
