Gale: 12Jan11 Actually I thought we had agreed that loading stuff about "keeping your projects happy" and other random material here was the wrong place to do it.
- We haven't even explained what a project is.
- All this is nothing to with a "diagram" and no users who have commented about it by e-mail like it here. Most have said it is completely confusing.
On its way out, I think.
Peter 12Jan11 Yes, but we need to find a good home for it - it is sage advice...
Ed 17Feb11 Move the diagram to the bottom of the Project Window page with a named section to which the link will refer. With the recent changes to the Device Toolbar the image is out-of-date.
- Bill 06Apr11: Per the discussion above, "commented out" the sections we don't want. Perhaps have a link to Peter's new Audacity Projects page?
- Gale 06Apr11: Removed the superfluous material. I don't see how to segue it in sensibly. Added the essence of the "golden rules" to Saving with a link to Audacity Projects. A lot of the dire warnings on that latter page could probably be toned down now.
Edgar-rft 06Dec11: The "Hover your cursor over a window element to display the name of the item." doesn't work at all for me. If I hover the cursor over a window element, then name of the linked page is displayed, which is not the name of the item in translated versions. Does anybody know how to add a translated tooltip string to a linked image in WindowElements or any other way how to correct this?
