For some reason, my reply only went to Andrew so am forwarding it correctly. ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Phyllis Smith <phylsmith2017@gmail.com> Date: Sun, Aug 8, 2021 at 7:52 PM Subject: Re: in/out point selected plugin attach fix? To: Andrew Randrianasulu <randrianasulu@gmail.com> Andrew, forgot to respond to the following: again, I wonder why it was noted by Phyllis "but making it a Preference is
not a good idea.". Just because our Preferences a bit crowded already?
In the past, we have gotten into trouble when the Preferences window got bigger on some smaller monitors. A goal has always been to have Cinelerra continue to work on lesser hardware (which is one of the reasons proxy exists). What was happening is that the Preferences menu on a small monitor was cut off at the bottom and so there was no way for the user to click OK, Apply, or Cancel ! so the user was stuck. There is a minimum size for this window and adding more Preferences in the Appearance tab causes problems if it does not fit while still "looking good". So at this time it is very important to save room in Preferences for the really necessary things.
