The table shows a so-called 'exposure sheet' for an animation, where each row corresponds to one frame, and the columns correspond to the various foreground and background animation layers. There is one column for audio, and for synchronization purposes it is nice to show a wave form of the audio. However, the waveform is fixed, i.e. not editable, so adding and deleting table rows only affects the position fn table rows with respect to the audio: the audio is background, both as audio and as picture. Columns are not sortable, although it would be nice to be able to reorder them.
So, 'slicing' the wave form to fit the cells of the audio column will do, but then removing/reordering/adding a row from the table means that lots of cell images need to be shuffled to restore the audio track.
