  • Peter 11Sep09: Checked for spelling/typos/consistency. I note that the image is not what I see in Windows XP Audacity 1.3.10 - this looks like a MAC image - is that what we intend?

Warnings Preferences dialog

Show Warnings/Prompts

  • When saving projects: Every time you save a project, Audacity will warn you that you are saving an Audacity project file that only Audacity can open. Once you understand this, you can turn off this warning from within the warning dialog.
  • When saving empty project: Audacity will warn you when you try to save a project that contains no tracks.
  • When disk space is getting low: Audacity will warn you when you are running out of disk space for recording.
  • When mixing down to stereo during export: Audacity will warn you when a stereo audio file will be created as the result of an export operation. If you normally want to export to stereo audio files you can turn this warning off.
  • When mixing down to mono during export: Audacity will warn you when a mono audio file will be created as the result of an export operation.
