<div dir="ltr"><p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">OpenLP has quite many settings and I feel like some of them
should be enabled or disabled by default as opposed to the current defaults. I
think changing these settings would make OpenLP easier to use out of the box.<span></span></font></p><p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2"><br></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">The 2.5.1 / 2.6 release would be a good time to implement
these changes since there are a bunch of new settings introduced anyways.<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><font size="2"> </font></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><font size="2">Here are my
suggestions:<span></span></font></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><font size="2"> </font></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><font size="2">Enable: Remote plugin
by default<span></span></font></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- Remote plugin is disabled by default,<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- I think it should be enabled to make it easier<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2"> for the users to use
the remotes and avoid confusion<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><font size="2"> </font></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><font size="2">General tab:<span></span></font></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><font size="2">Enable: Unblank
display when sending items to Live <span></span></font></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- Currently the Live is not shown automatically if the
display is blanked, this has confused some of the users.<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- I think it would be a behaviour most of the users expect
to happen by default<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><font size="2">Enable: Unblank
display when changing slide in Live<span></span></font></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- Users may want to resume live by clicking on the slides<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- It may be confusing if this does not happen by default<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><font size="2"> </font></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><font size="2">Advanced tab:<span></span></font></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><font size="2">Change number of
recent service files to display from 4 to 10<span></span></font></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- Is there a reason why only 4 files should be shown?<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><font size="2">Enable: Double-click
to send items straight to Live<span></span></font></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- I think it would be a behaviour most of the users expect
to happen by default<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- I think it's somewhat confusing if the item is not sent to
Live by double click<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><font size="2">Enable: Preview items
when clicked in Library<span></span></font></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- This would make previewing items much easier<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- If you select a item you probably would like to see the
preview anyways<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><font size="2">Enable: Preview items
when clicked in Service<span></span></font></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- The same as Library preview, also: consistency<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><font size="2">Default service name:<span></span></font></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">Currently: Service %Y-%m-%d %H-%M = Service 2017-03-18 15-38<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- Do we need to have the clock here?<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><font size="2"> </font></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2"><b>Players tab:</b> (not
sure of how this currently works)<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- Enable/disable whatever works the best based on OS.<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">(There may be differences.) For example VLC is disabled by
default,<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">which means no video playback support.<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><font size="2"> </font></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><font size="2">Songs tab: <span></span></font></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><font size="2">Enable: Update
service from song edit<span></span></font></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- This is probably the expected behaviour of average users<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><font size="2">Disable: Show
"Written by:" in footer for unspecified authors<span></span></font></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- This was added in 2.3<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- Many people requested for a way to disable the
"Written by"<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- Not all of the authors are "Writers"<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- Some churches write the author type as part of the author
name.<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- I think this should be disabled by default<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><font size="2">Enable: Display
"©" symbol before copyright info<span></span></font></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- This is only visible when copyright details are included<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- This is not shown for authors<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- Since it's copyright we might as well show the
"©" by default<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><font size="2"> </font></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><font size="2">Bibles Library: Make
default layout style: "Verse per line"<span></span></font></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- Currently the default is "Verse per slide"<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- I feel like this is a bit silly way to display Bible
verses.<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- Verse per line would fit a lot of more verses per slide<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><font size="2"> </font></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><font size="2">Presentations tab:<span></span></font></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><font size="2">Enable: Clicking on
the current slide advances to the next effect<span></span></font></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- If this is disabled, PowerPoint effects, such as
transitions are skipped in Live <br>
(Unless navigated with the arrows)<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- I think this is highly confusing and may be considered to
be a fault in OpenLP by most of the users.<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><font size="2"> </font></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><font size="2">Media tab:<span></span></font></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><font size="2">Enable: Start new
Live media automatically<span></span></font></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">- Consistency with the other changes regarding to sending
items to live<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><font size="2"> </font></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">Philip messaged earlier regarding to the settings related to
the search while typing functionality:<br><br><span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">"Currently there are two 'search as you type' options
in the config. One in advanced which enables/disables the functionality in the
songs and custom plugins. And one on the Bible tab which is for the Bible's.<span></span></font></p><p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2"><br></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">Do we need the option on the Bible tab? Can these be almagamated
on the advance tab? <span></span></font></p><p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2"><br></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">If not how do we handle to config upgrade case where the
user has it selected on one tab not the other? My suggestion would be to enable
it for all if it's already enabled for one of them.<span></span></font></p><p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2"><br></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">Phill "<br><br><span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">I think it would be a good idea to combine them and enable
the setting by default.<span></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><font size="2"> </font></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">Feel free to reply and share your thoughts on the changes.<span></span></font></p>
