User Guide

EDITING
Use this to set preferences related to editing and undo operations.
LIMIT NUMBER OF UNDO BUFFERS TO (0 TO 999) DEFAULT: 100
If this is checked, it determines the maximum number of Undo operations that
will be saved before they start to get deleted. Having many Undo operations
available will use a lot of hard-disk space.
LIMIT NUMBER OF REDO BUFFERS TO (0 TO 999) DEFAULT: 100
If this is checked, it determines the maximum number of Redo operations that
will be saved before they start to get deleted. Having many Redo operations
available will use a lot of hard-disk space.
DEFAULT ALL NEW WINDOWS TO UNDO DISABLED DEFAULT: UNCHECKED
Enabling this option will keep Sound Forge XP from creating undo buffers for
any operation that modifies a sound file. You are still able to turn the undo
creation on by using the Disable Undo command (Edit menu) for any window,
but by default no undo buffers will be created.
DRAG & DROP AUTO RISE DELAY (0.1 TO 2.0 SECONDS) DEFAULT: 0.7
Determines the time necessary before a window underneath the cursor
becomes active during drag and drop operations.
DISABLE TRIPLE-CLICKING TO SELECT ALL SOUND FILE DATA DEFAULT: OFF
Turn this option on if you don’t want Sound Forge XP to select all sound data
when you triple-click. You might want to turn this off if triple-clicks are
constantly being falsely detected when you make a selection and then try to do
a drag operation. Otherwise, lowering Windows’ double-click threshold time
might help.
FILE
Use this to set preferences related to opening and saving files.
WARN IF SAVE CHANGES THE SOUND DATA DEFAULT: CHECKED
When you save a sound file to a different format, such as doing 16- to 8-bit
conversions or compressing audio, you will not hear the conversion’s effect on
the sound until you re-open the file. If this option is enabled, you will get a
message warning of this.
