I have a repeatable crash when merging one particular Rosegarden file into another. Because it's repeatable I should be able to fix it tomorrow, but I want to mention it now (just before logging out) in case it's obvious to someone else. So, what would cause this? The crash follows a warning

Firstly bear in mind that we'll not be making any changes of this magnitude to the UI core functionality this close to 1.0 - secondly the way the functionality works makes much more sense if you use the keyboard shortcuts and the sweep selector on the segment canvas. Sweep out some segments and

In the tracks editor, there are several ways of doing deletions: 1 "Delete" in the "Edit" menu which is for deleting any segments which you have previously selected by clicking or, in the case of multiple segments, Shift-clicking. These selected segmented are drawn in a darker shade

Anyone know any reason we shouldn't call setsid() to get a new process group right at the start of the GUI's main()? When you run Rosegarden from the KDE desktop it starts up with the same process group ID as kdeinit, which means if anything gets in a panic and tries to kill the process group,
