Barry Beckham Posted July 12, 2012 Report Posted July 12, 2012 IgorJust a couple of issues1. Over the past few weeks, I have had 2 emails and 2 phone calls from less experienced users of PTE asking where the lightbox in PTE has gone. Yes, I appreciate its easy to bring up with F4, but seeing as we are using large screens and there is so much space in the main window of PTE, could you give some thought to putting it back on the main page as an icon? 2. Personally I very often like to use the Ctrl+W option to open up more than one image from PTE. Is that a feesible option to create? Quote
Guest Yachtsman1 Posted July 12, 2012 Report Posted July 12, 2012 It is still there under "view" on the top info bar.Yachtsman1. Quote
Barry Beckham Posted July 12, 2012 Author Report Posted July 12, 2012 Yes, I am aware of that, but this is a suggestion for something more convenient and something a new user will spot easier. Its not a request for help or it wouldn't be in the suggestions section. Quote
Guest Yachtsman1 Posted July 12, 2012 Report Posted July 12, 2012 It seems to be the trend to de-clutter the PTE screen, probably to make way for more innovations to the sound & video functions.Yachtsman1. Quote
davegee Posted July 12, 2012 Report Posted July 12, 2012 It is possible that Igor has listened to a previous, similar request.DG Quote
Ken Cox Posted July 12, 2012 Report Posted July 12, 2012 VERY DIFFICULT FOR OLDIES, to help newbies when all the "little easy " icons get hidden-- look how much whining we did to get "toast" put to where we could easily help people - same goes for whiteboard - we very rarely see Igor's staff come to the fore to help out !!!ken Quote
xahu34 Posted July 12, 2012 Report Posted July 12, 2012 ... Yes, I appreciate its easy to bring up with F4 ...F3 ?Regards,Xaver Quote
ContaxMan Posted July 12, 2012 Report Posted July 12, 2012 I'm in the "bring it back" camp too! I use shortcuts all the time but a lot of my tutees don't like them and want icons! Quote
Barry Beckham Posted July 13, 2012 Author Report Posted July 13, 2012 XaverF3 brings up the File List, F4 brings up the Slide List. You can drag and drop images in the slide list, but not the file list, that is for selecting images for the slide list, if you want to use that method Quote
Igor Posted July 14, 2012 Report Posted July 14, 2012 Barry,Lightbox is back in v7.5. New timeline also will be available in fullscreen mode (with audio tracks). Quote

westonphoto Posted July 15, 2012 Report Posted July 15, 2012 Is it me, or is there something vaguely risible about an Australian correcting a Canadian over use of the English language? I was under the impression that the Ebo were the dominant race of southern Nigeria, never realised that they had a sub-branch in southern Canada. Quote
Ken Cox Posted July 15, 2012 Report Posted July 15, 2012 Usually it shows admiration from the person who say it towards the person to whom the sentence is intended.if you were people that have been visiting regularly, you would know that i use the phrase quite regularly when i praise people for great workhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ebonicsthese remarks are very close to racial profiling -- a no no on the forumken Quote
davegee Posted July 15, 2012 Report Posted July 15, 2012 Roger,Would it be fair to say that the Lightbox has never been away?It is the icon that went walkabout.DG Quote
ContaxMan Posted July 16, 2012 Report Posted July 16, 2012 Icon - yes, that's the missing link! Quote
