TOGGLE SELECTION

By using the ‘S‘ key (or this menu item), you can toggle back and forth between

the last selection and last cursor position. For instance, you may be setting the

cursor in various places while navigating throughout a sound file. If you then

hit ‘S’, the last selected region will immediately return to the display.

Shortcut:

UNDO/REDO HISTORY

CLEAR

Use this function to erase the temporary files created in the undo history for

the active file. These files do take up disk space, so you might want to

periodically clear them when you are sure that you don’t want to undo any of

your previous changes.This function only affects the current sound file.

CLEAR ALL

This command will clear the undo histories for all open sound files. Clear all

affects all of the opened sound files. After doing this you will be unable to

undo changes you have made to all modified sound files.

REBUILD PEAK DATA

This function recalculates the peak data file for the active data window.A peak

data file is used in displaying a file’s waveform without scanning the entire

length of the file for the sample amplitudes.This makes screen redraws much

faster.

If for some reason you believe that the waveform display is not accurately

representing the sound file, you can use this function to force Sound Forge XP

to re-scan the entire file. However, under normal circumstances you should

never have to do so since Sound Forge XP will always update the peak file after

every edit operation and when loading a file.
