Create Labels with Numbered Values in Audacity

The Numbered Label plugin for Audacity is a tool that allows users to quickly add a label to their project with a numerical value that is one more than the highest value of any existing labels. This makes it easier to keep track of labels in a project with multiple labels. The plugin works by searching for labels in the project and finding the highest numerical value in the labels. It then adds a new label with a value that is one more than the highest numerical value. This helps users quickly add labels to their project without having to manually figure out what the next number should be.

Advanced Description

This Audacity plugin, Numbered Label, allows users to quickly add labels to their project. Labels are used to mark different sections of the project, and can be named anything the user wants. The plugin automatically assigns a numerical value to each label, starting from the highest value already found in the project and increasing by one for each label added. The plugin contains a main procedure that searches for the highest numerical value of all labels in the project and assigns the new label an ID and value. It also looks for the focused audio track and the label track, and assigns the new label to the label track after the focused track. If no labels exist in the project, the plugin assigns the new label an ID of 0. Finally, the plugin runs Audacity commands to add the label, deselect all labels, and set the label text to the numerical value. This plugin is an easy way to keep track of labels in an Audacity project without having to manually assign numerical values.
