Error reports and discussions about section 2.5 of the User Manual
2.5. Resources Window ========== 2.5.3. Modify Folder: sorting the media --------------------------------------- In the HTML User Manual, there's an empty item in the bulleted list showing the subsections:
Subsections * * Drag and Drop: * Filters:
On page 84 of the PDF User Manual, the "Enable" field is referred to as "Enabled":
Filters: you do automatic populating using filters (Smart Bins mode). You set the values of the Enabled; Target; Op and Value fields to make up the required filtering.
On the same page, I'm not sure if the following explanation is correct:
When you click on the Value portion of that filter, the entire set of files that are covered by the filter rules pops up.
Nothing happens when I click on the Value portion of a filter. On page 85, "follows ." in the following sentence should be "follows."
Information about the columns and rules for the search filters in the Modify folder window follows .
On page 87, it'd be nicer if the table were properly formatted. On page 88, should we change the meaning of the third-to-last example of Table 2.2 to "files included all have 23 to 25 framerate"? 2.5.5. Resources Window Preview Mode ------------------------------------ On page 91, "until click it again" should be "until you click it again":
When you do, a line will be drawn through the current preview mode so that you are aware that it is in No Play mode until click it again.
2.5.6. Moving clips/media from/to Resources window -------------------------------------------------- On page 92, what does "wipe the names" mean?
Obviously this Paste file list feature means you can create a list of files outside of C INELERRA-GG using an editor, wipe the names, and then use Paste file list to load them into the media Resources window.
On page 93, shouldn't there be three additional media files, not six?
When that is done, the additional 6 media files will be available on this other instance too.
On the same page, I think "as the 5th item down" should be "as the penultimate item down":
2. right click in an empty spot in the media folder and the popup shows snap- shot as the 5 th item down
On page 94, "the 6th menu item" should be "the last menu item":
Grabshot is the 6th menu item.
Bulhwi, thank you very much for the work you have done to not only find these errors, but to write down what they are and how to fix them. I have fixed most of them and the corrections will be in tomorrow's next release Manual update. 2.5. Resources Window
2.5.3. Modify Folder: sorting the media ---------------------------------------
In the HTML User Manual, there's an empty item in the bulleted list showing the subsections:
Subsections * * Drag and Drop: * Filters:
********* I have not figured out how to fix the above yet.
On page 84 of the PDF User Manual, the "Enable" field is referred to as "Enabled":
Filters: you do automatic populating using filters (Smart Bins mode). You set the values of the Enabled; Target; Op and Value fields to make up the required filtering.
********* Fixed above
On the same page, I'm not sure if the following explanation is correct:
When you click on the Value portion of that filter, the entire set of files that are covered by the filter rules pops up.
Nothing happens when I click on the Value portion of a filter.
******* This is now better explained in that only when there is filenames in the Value field from having dragged over files from Media to your new folder, does that work.
On page 85, "follows ." in the following sentence should be "follows."
Information about the columns and rules for the search filters in the Modify folder window follows .
************* The above is fixed.
On page 87, it'd be nicer if the table were properly formatted.
Not yet fixed. We have tried to fix this before but then it looks badly formatted in the HTML version instead.
On page 88, should we change the meaning of the third-to-last example of Table 2.2 to "files included all have 23 to 25 framerate"?
************ I am still pondering "around" as I believe this works but I am not using it as intended.
2.5.5. Resources Window Preview Mode ------------------------------------
On page 91, "until click it again" should be "until you click it again":
When you do, a line will be drawn through the current preview mode so that you are aware that it is in No Play mode until click it again.
************* Fixed above.
2.5.6. Moving clips/media from/to Resources window --------------------------------------------------
On page 92, what does "wipe the names" mean?
Obviously this Paste file list feature means you can create a list of files outside of C INELERRA-GG using an editor, wipe the names, and then use Paste file list to load them into the media Resources window.
I have reworded this. Wipe the names just means highlight them with the mouse however your O/S lets you. In my Fedora O/S, I just used the left mouse button to swipe over the names I want.
On page 93, shouldn't there be three additional media files, not six?
When that is done, the additional 6 media files will be available on this other instance too.
***** Fixed.
On the same page, I think "as the 5th item down" should be "as the penultimate item down":
2. right click in an empty spot in the media folder and the popup shows snap- shot as the 5 th item down
*********** Fixed to read the 7th item down.
On page 94, "the 6th menu item" should be "the last menu item":
Grabshot is the 6th menu item.
*********** Fixed as you recommended.
