Review scroll rate defaults
Last modified: 2011-11-06 23:25:07 UTC
Add options to control the speed/pause/etc of the NP text scrolling similar to what's available for the SB2/3 on the Player->Display SC settings page.
All settings are being reviewed.
Matt's working on the settings.
It sounds like the "real" problem is that the speed/pause doesn't respond at the correct rate by default? So... why not just make it "work" rather than burdening the user with another setting?

As a long time SB2 user, I find it distracting that the scroll and pause rates seem different than the default ones on the SB2. And, the options exist to change these things on the SB2/3 and some folks will also want to change them on Fab4.
Fletch, I wouldn't say we're trying to "eliminate options wherever possible" per se - rather, we want to get out of the practice of adding new user settings as the go-to solution for bad default settings or clearly non-ideal functionality. As per your comment that users will want to change these settings manually... fair comment, but I think everyone involved would enjoy better defaults...

You guys have an active and vocal power user contingent. I would urge you to to continue down the path started by the new default SC skin of keeping options, but making the advanced ones less obvious. > > As per your comment that users will want to change these settings manually... > fair comment, but I think everyone involved would enjoy better defaults... > I'll admit that my comments regarding defaults are based on my SB2 usage. I have no idea whether the average new user would agree with me or not. I assume you do focus groups and CAT for that kind of thing.
