Better control of Scopes View

PostFri Nov 08, 2019 12:14 pm

I'm very happy working on DVR using a single monitor. I rarelly use the mouse, instead I use smart keyboard shortcuts and MiniPanel.

I miss a 4 scopes parade when the scopes are attached to the main window. Deattaching the scopes window always hides something important over the GUI, when working on a single monitor system. And currently deattaching the scopes is the only way to access to a x2 or x4 scopes view. So I let scopes attached on the main window. But when I have to change between to scopes, the only way is to access to the tiny menu, which makes loose a lot of time.

Here comes my suggestions. With only one suggestion completed I'll be more than happy and will accelerate my workflow:

- A single keyboard shortcut to sequentially switch sequencially between the different scopes (parade->waveform->vectroscope->histogram->CIE)

A shortcut or simply slide the mouse wheel over the scopes will be quickier. In fact, clicking on the scopes has no effect. Instead we can use this action to switch between scopes! Please

- Clicking on the scopes, or sliding the mouse wheel over, should changes to the next scope. This will be mch faster than the current menu.

- A "x2 to x4 scopes" mode when the scopes are attached to the main DVR window (see below)

Here is plenty of space for scopes, and avoid to use the menu selection, which is time consuming, pleeeease

Consider grade my clips from the MiniPanel, so I don't need the computer screen for parameters that already have on the MiniPanel. I really need the display for scopes.
Having any of the options above available, only begginers will use the current scopes menu.

What about a separate window with four scopes?

I think it would be great if every function accessed through the menus could have the ability to define a keyboard shortcut for it.

The deattached scopes window is always hidding useful parts of the main GUI when used on single monitors (i.e a 27" iMac) or laptops. For non dual monitor systems, it has no sense to deattach the scopes but it is the only way to get access to the 4-scopes window. I need an unified GUI on single display system with at least 2-scopes. Or a keyboard shortcut to switch between scopes.

Pitty that 4-scope is still not integrated in the GUI.

i see that you don't understand. I apologize that i am not English native speaker. I try my best.
I also don't undestand what exactly do you mean with your answer.

What did you don't understand? The words I used? Or the concept that the deattached scopes window has opacy 100% and I can't see what is behind on the GUI?

"Slopes". It doesn't fit in that context. What do you think that word means?

By context, my reading is “blocks”, “hides”, “obstructs”.

Slopes doesn't mean that at all, though.

He may have mistyped “stops” (as in “stops visibility”) and autocorrect typed “slopes”.

I remember perfectly that I asked the correct word to translate.google.com ... and "slope" was google suggestion.

BTW, I've edited and corrected the original post. So I guess that the request I made to BMD finds and follow her course of action on the coming version of DVR.

BTW 2: It's funny to me to writte in English. I never studied, I just started listening english-singed music and traslating the lyrics. I just laugh about my mistakes, because is the fastest way to keep learning without studying, and also laughing about mistakes because it's a nice way to get foreign friends around.
