Default for Audio FIles
November 27, 2007 12:00 AM
Lectora's default for audio files being inserted in a title are to have the speaker icon visible, and for the file NOT to play automatically.I'd say that better than 90% of the time, audio files (i.e., for voiceover) are programmed to play automatically, and there is no need for an icon to be visible to the user.This results in a lot of extra clicking -- two clicks to open properties, one to make the icon invisible, one to set the audio to play automatically, and one more to close the properties menu. For a 30 screen title, that's 150 mouse clicks that shouldn't have to be made.Why not make the default the other way around -- or better yet, give the user the ability to set the defaults according to his/her preferences? (This last should apply to all inserted objects.)Best Regards,Dave
