cead Posted January 25, 2020 Report Posted January 25, 2020 For a moment I forgot where I can change from % to dB in the audio track and vice versa.Don't find it in the Online help. Frans Quote
jmG-06100 Posted January 25, 2020 Report Posted January 25, 2020 Frans If you read French, the manual by Jean-Charles Pizolatto is free to download and it gives the answer page 88 of 196 (paragraph "5.8.3 Les points clés audio"): <<Le choix, % ou décibels se fait dans Paramètres / Préférences / Ligne de temps>> https://files.wnsoft.com/pteavstudio/user-guides/10.0/Guide-technique-de-PTE-AV-Studio-10-FR.pdf Quote

jmG-06100 Posted January 25, 2020 Report Posted January 25, 2020 Thank you, Dave G, for the link to the English manual. It is quite unfortunate that the SEARCH engine is too coarse to find the keyword "decibel", while "decibels" (with the plural) returns two "hits" and the required information. Maybe there is a setting I have not seen for "partial match" during the search ? Quote
michaelr108 Posted January 25, 2020 Report Posted January 25, 2020 Hi There Is there any way we can get the French Manual translated to English ? Michael Quote
tom95521 Posted January 25, 2020 Report Posted January 25, 2020 Wildcard search for decibel or decibels. decibel* Quote

It always pays to read the Instructions, or in this case, the Search Tips where the method for partial searches is explained. *deci* finds it easy enough. OTOH, searching for an alternative, like "percent" would have found it. https://docs.picturestoexe.com/en-us/10.0/searchtips/main DG Quote
jmG-06100 Posted January 25, 2020 Report Posted January 25, 2020 Indeed the search with a trailing "*" works fine. Good to know. Actually I had searched for "dB" initially, with no success, since that is nowhere mentioned as such. Quote
davegee Posted January 25, 2020 Report Posted January 25, 2020 You can put a "*" before AND after any group of letters in the search term and it should find it. Try *deci* - it works fine and does not matter that there is nothing before the "d". If the search term is not there, obviously it will not find it, but I could easily hide "dB" somewhere on the page to cover all eventualities. Try *dB* now. It brings up the other possibilities as well as what you are really looking for. DG Quote
cead Posted January 25, 2020 Author Report Posted January 25, 2020 Thank you for all your suggestions.I just overlooked it at the timeline. Frans Quote

I did not expect such care for the keyword I tried initially. Great stuff and thanks again. Quote
