A few update suggestions
Posted: Fri Jul 20, 2012 9:16 am
1. More control over the formatting of co-ordinate sheets. Right now all you can choose is page, half page, quarter page, etc. Being able to 'scale' theme (via a zoom/display percentage box for example) would allow maximum flexibility to get one performer or two performers per page (avoids the dreading print out/cut up scenario for us overworked band directors)
2. support for .mp3 files. I see that quite a few people have already mentioned this, so I will not beat the dead horse.
3. A way to record animation playback, with audio, in a format that is not overly huge. RIght now most of us use a third party screen capture software, such as Camstasia studio, BSR Screen Recorder 5, ZDR Screen Recorder, etc. THis all produce results that can be a bit variable, and most videos start with those 2-3 seconds where the viewer gets to see our mouse frantically starting the audio playback and then hitting the animation with spacebar button, and then we pound away on the spacebar praying that we dont miss the tempo change in the drum solo! Having a way to export the animation as a .avi or .mov file (with audio) would be HUGE. Even if you did it as a purchasable plug-in, I am sure hordes of us would purchase it to streamline the end of the process.
4. Fix the wonkiness of the tool handles. Even with the resolution of the handles set at "1" step, I can still draw a horizontal line at two step interval that isn't straight. There needs to be some sort of 'snap to grid' option (with choosable step size resolution) for the edit handles on drawing tools.
5. A true full screen option for the perspective window. I run a 23" widescreen monitor and the largest window I can get for the persepctive view is about 70% of the available area. It sort of negates monitor size.
That is it for now. Thanks.
