Hi Jordan,

The manual says that arming a track for recording can be done with the space 
key. After arming it, pressing play should start recording, but I haven't been 
able to do this. I can only arm tracks with the mouse button. If I wanted to 
record on an unarmed track, pressing play should arm it for recording and 
pressing play after that would start recording according to the manual.

I guess that is an error in the manual then. The keyboard shortcut to arm a track is 'r'. As explained, what space does is to _start_ recording while playing *if* the track was armed.

I believe the rosegarden manual would really do well with some updates and love... not sure when it was last updated.

Here is a quite comprehensive list of keyboard shortcuts:

Hope this helps.

Hello, the Rosegarden manual says that I press Space to arm for

recording when the transport is stopped, and that a subsequent “play”

will in fact record as well, but when I do this nothing happens.

Pressing space only works for punch-in recording, pressing [space] when

stopped does nothing. Is this a bug?

How are you exactly doing this?

Did you arm the track before trying to record anything?

Once armed you can start recroding via:

-   Pressing CTRL + SPACE (or hitting the red button in the top transport)
-   Pressing SPACE * while the transport is rolling *

     Keep in mind that if Rosegarden didn't receive any notes it will not

     create a segment even if you started recording...

     Hope this helps.

     PS: Rosegarden exposes many keyboard shortcuts if you hover over the

     button (for instance the record one), in the tooltip.
