Manual Front Page - TOC
This is a link to mock-up Version-10 of the proposed new Table of Contents for the Front Page of the manual: User:PeterSampson/Front Page Mock Up Version-10
The objective of this change was to give greater prominence and visibility to the Tutorials section of the manual. In order to achieve this we created links to the main tutorials in the TOC. Many thanks to Gale Andrews for his invaluable help in developing this proposal.
Gale implemented this V10 as an interim change on 23Jan2011. We still plan further work on the Front Page. Some discussion may be viewed on the V10 mock-up page linked to above. And in this forum thread: http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=52190
Peter 26Jan11: I corrected the div id for the "Using Audacity" section. Following our recent TOC update the "Using Audacity" link in the navigation bar was not redirecting properly. My bad: when I created the expanded "Using Audacity" block, I "borrowed" the formatting/layout from Referece section - including its div id. :-(
Audacity Projects
This is a link to a mockup of a revised page on "Audacity Projects" : User:PeterSampson/Audacity Projects Mock Up Version-1
- To merge the content of the two previous pages "Audacity Projects" and "Audacity Project Format" - note that there is now only one page linked to from the manual's front page.
- As we will be maintaining the "Faster" setting for Import Preferences I wanted to expand this page to advise on the two settings, pointing out that with the default setting the data is not actually imported into the project but rather is referenced outside of it.
