Toolbars Overview

The Toolbars provide quick access to many functions in Audacity. In some cases the functions provided by a toolbar are available only through that toolbar.

Gale: Are we going for below idea with Transcription and Tools side-by-side at the bottom; or all images in their own row, only longer images have text under, otherwise floated to right? If the former, we need the Transcription image to have space at the bottom (or a spacer image) so that the height matches with Tools.

Bill: Expanded transcription toolbar image added. Ed now had a windows image of the mixer toolbar with the input selector enabled - do we now want to get rid of the Mac image?

I'm fine with this page as it is now. - Nov 21/09
