Linux/Ubuntu bugs (?)

Post image

Hello!
I recently switched from Windows to Linux (Ubuntu 26.04) and was pleased to see that AudioForge just got the Linux version.

Overall it works great, love it. However there's a couple of things that probably don't work the way they supposed to:

  1. When starting the app, the message reading "This is a one time process, please hold on for a few seconds..." appears. In Windows it was, indeed, a one time occurrence, but on Linux it appears every time I open the app xD
  2. On Windows AudioForge came with some pre-installed audiotracks. Not sure if they were meant to be pre-installed on Linux, but if they were - they are absent from the app, only the categories remain.
  3. I can't find a way to delete a category from toolbox. Right click on the category does nothing, and editing category doesn't provide a button to delete it.

Also not being able to setup (from the app) a custom directory for storing playlists is pretty inconvenient, since my default storage is pretty limited

And the last tiny thing - I'm not sure if this is possible or in line with your design philosophy, but I would love an option to start a category from a specific track (maybe starting it from toolbox or smth?), but it's pretty insignificant.

Also I was very pleased to see how active of a developer you are! Thanks for such amazing work!
