"So, how is a the menu helping anyone if this is the case?" let's say the user is a video person (not an audio person and therefore lacks relevant experience or knowledge about linux audio applications) and this user knows they need to edit audio for their podcast.
i think having audacity in the video menu is invaluable because it says in the tool tip that it is used to edit audio. otherwise, they look at all the applications in the audio menus and probably get overwhelmed by the shear number of applications, although the sub-menus have most likely helped this enormously. "the first place to start is to create workflow documentation" i would say that the documentation exists in an unfinished state in wiki.ubuntu.com, but i agree it should made prettier, finished, and put either on help.ubuntu.com or the ubuntu studio website. while i agree the documentation should be available to a user, i'm not sure that this needs to be THE primary source for a person who knows the work flow but doesn't know what application has been included for that task. having audacity in the video menu is that visual and immediate cue. i would like to point out that audacity has _not_ been removed from the audio menu in preference for the video menu. only those people who go to the video menu will notice that audacity is there. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/984970 Title: Audacity and Inkscape are in the video production menu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntustudio-default-settings/+bug/984970/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
