Cedric Dawnhawk Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 If, like me, you are interested in harmonising slides to music, then being able to precisely adjust the position of the slide on the timeline and the length of the transition with respect to the music is crucial. Achieving this may mean reviewing and adjusting each transition a number of times.In earlier versions there was a handy feature that made this easy. When the mouse button was depressed on the timeline to make an adjustment to position or transition, playback paused. When the mouse was released playback resumed. This meant that a transition could be adjusted by dragging it and then, by simply clicking in the timeline before the transition, the revised transition could be played again for review.In later versions the behaviour changed subtly. When the mouse button is depressed to make an adjustment, playback continues. When the button is released playback stops. To start playback again you need to press the space bar.Is there any reason why the original behaviour can't be restored? I would much prefer it, and presumably as others have not complained, they wouldn't mind either way.The difference in behaviour occurred somewher between version 7.07 and 7.5 so it presumably was not due to major changes in the internal working of PTE.
