Using Scubbing
Finally the promised changes to scrubbing user interface:
- Scrubbing works only in Select tool mode.
- ctrl-click then drag to scrub, or to seek when shift is down.
- Control wheel to vary the speed limit, while scrubbing (not seeking).
- ctrl-double-click then drag to scrub or (with SHIFT down to seek) while keeping the playhead at the midline of the track display.
- Speed of play and direction of play is controlled by dragging left/right from the center of waveform display
- ctrl-click again to stop, or use space bar or > stop button, etc.
- The transcription toolbar setting determines the initial scrubbing speed limit each time you start scrubbing (under discussion, subject to change).
- The scrubbing position on completion can be marked with a left-click mouse gesture (moves the cursor to that position)
Between clicks, the scrub is governed by mouse movement, the shift key, and the (undepressed) mouse wheel.
