The Window menu appears only on macOS. It contains commands for displaying and zooming project windows.

Minimize

Minimizes the front project window into the Dock. Same as clicking the yellow minimize button at the upper left of the window.

Zoom

  • If the front window does not fill the entire screen between the Dock and the Audacity Menu Bar, expands the window to fill that space.
  • If the window was previously expanded with this command, clicking the Zoom item again will return the window to its previous size and position.

This menu item is the same as Option-clicking the green zoom button at upper left of the project window. Unmodified-clicking the green zoom button does the same as View > Enter / Exit Full Screen.

Bring All to Front

If any Audacity windows are minimized or covered by other windows, this command will make those windows visible.

Gale 06Jul16: Commented out list of open windows as this is not available at the moment.

List of open windows

Contains an item for each open project. Selecting a project window from this menu will bring it to the front and make it active, retrieving it from the Dock if needed. Any project that has never been saved will just be called "Audacity". The active project window will have a check beside it. A project window in the Dock will have a diamond beside it.
