This includes fixing em-dashes, badly spaced colons, various
misspellings, removal of spurious {% %} constructs, conversion of <br />
to <br> (still too many <br>s kicking around), and initial light cleanup
of a few sections that caught my eye.

This section explains the rules used to decide which regions are affected
|
|
by editing operations. You don't really have to understand them—hopefully
|
|
things will Just Work—but it may be useful eventually to understand the rules.

Editing operations in Ardour either operate on a single point in time
|
|
(<kbd class="menu">Split</kbd> being the obvious example) or on two
|
|
points (which can also be considered to be a range of sorts), <kbd
|
|
class="menu">Separate</kbd> is a good example of this.
|
|

Most operations will operate on the currently selected region(s), but if
|
|
no regions are selected, the region that the mouse is in will be used
|
|
instead. Single-point operations will generally pick a set of regions to
|
|
use based on the following rules:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li> If the edit point is `mouse', then
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>if the mouse is over a selected region, or no region, use all selected
|
|
regions, or</li>
|
|
<li>if the mouse is over an unselected region, use just that region.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li> For all other edit points
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
use the selected regions <em>and</em> those that are both
|
|
under the edit position <em>and</em> on a selected track,
|
|
or on a track which is in the same active edit-enabled route group
|
|
as a selected region.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The rationale here for the two different rules is that the mouse edit point
|
|
is special in that its position indicates both a time and a track; the other
|
|
edit points (Playhead,Marker) indicate a time only.
