Show both audio levels and waveform with shortcut L

Hey! When I want to quickly access the audio level of a layer I press "L", if i click it again it'll come up with the waveform but not the audio levels. So I have to click it once to get the audio levels and then open the waveform manually with the mouse. I think it would make more sense to open both with one shortcut as when adjusting the audio levels it's really useful to see the waveform as well. Alternatively, when pressing L twice show the waveform as well as the audio level. It's a small change but it would saving me quite a lot of time!

    That's too many steps when he just asked for a simple keyboard shortcut

    Thanks Rick, works for me! Still, it would be great to see both audio level and waveform at the same time by just pressing LL:)

    Try pressing LL, then hold down shift and press L.

      I'll add it to the backlog for the team to consider. I'm sure back when it was originally built, swapping between the waveform and the level made sense but if that no longer does, we can certainly look at adjusting the behavior.

      Hi Rick! Thanks for the reply! I would love to do that, shift+L to create an audio Level keyframe (I think I might have edited the original shortcut), but now LL will show me the waveform, without the keyframe, and U will show me all the keyframe but without the Waveform... Check it on your end, maybe the behaviour on my machine is different, I cannot find a way to open levels AND waveform without manually open the waveform with the mouse. It's not a big deal but I feel like this is the kind of small UI/UX changes that will save lots of time to everyone overrall!

      Set a keyframe for Audio Levels, press LL. then press U. That will give you both properties.
