Bug testing workbench

Peter 18Jul16: This is a page to act as a workbench for my testing on W10 and macOS.

Some DEVEL FIXMADE bugs get "parked" by me as they involve downloading plug-ins from sites I know nothing about - I am not prepared to risk that.

See the Talk page for bugs resolved in earlier releases.

Re-opened

• P1 2367 - Change Pitch effect may create spurious clip at end
• P1 2526 - Mac: multi-projects inhibit label text creation
• P2 2539 - No "?" help button on disk full error message(s) - Residual: messages need tweaking
• P2 2515 - Exporting to a disk with insufficient space gives messages that are not user-friendly or helpful

• P4 1215 - Incorrect splits produced by Change Tempo with leading whitespace
