i guess that all necessary UI/UX updates are done now. still waiting @phred for suggestions on updated readme. then i'll change readme files in plugin .zip, 1st post on this topic, and add-on page.
@boroda- do you have the last revision I did? If so, can you PM it to me? Or post it here, if you wish. If you don't have it, can you get me the last one -you- did?
I'll have some time towards the end of the week to look it over, ask you questions, and get it done.
Thanks.
i think, no. the latest readme version i have is very old. here what i have now:
https://www.mediafire.com/file/xw1y91qr66id89r/README_FIRST%2521.txt/filebut ASR behavior have been changed since the time this readme version have been written. here is the current ASR behavior, which is different from described in readme:
----
process of preset installing is changed: "install
new" will always silently update all (customized or not, but only if there are new versions of installed presets, or new presets have been added to plugin zip since presets have been installed/updated last time) predefined presets,
always preserving all customizations. 'install
all' will ask the user (ask, only if some presets are customized) if he wants to reinstall all unchanged and update all modified by plugin developer presets
resetting all customizations,
or preserving all customizations. 'install all' will always install presets not existing among working presets (i.e. new or previously deleted by user presets), and always reinstall/update all not customized presets.
reinstallation of unchanged presets (only when performing 'install
all' command) may be useful if some working predefined presets (not presets located in "plugins\asr presets" folder - "local preset repository" - i'm, actually, not sure how these presets must be named) are somehow damaged (or if user
wants to reset all customizations).
----
this warning must be inserted to readme: Be careful to not ACCIDENTALLY tick some "Advanced Search & Replace" preset(s) for AUTOMATIC APPLYING! there will be a reddish (color near to red) warning message at the top of ASR window, if you have any ASR presets ticked for auto-applying.
----
i think that the following explanation (but very shortened and simplified) must be mentioned in readme:
user preset (no matter how it has been created - from scratch or by copying predefined preset) doesn't relate anymore to any other (e.g. predefined) preset. user has full control over user preset, can completely change (edit) it, and user preset will never be affected by any deletion/(re)installation/updating of predefined presets.
customized preset is always a tiny modification (only allowed by me modification) of predefined preset (and only predefined preset) made by user. it's not a new copy of preset, and it's still predefined preset. user can reset all customizations of all predefined presets by clicking "install all" button, and clicking "yes" in the following confirmation dialog.
----
all the text i've written above is j
ust a draft. it's
not suitable for final readme.
so, could you (and maybe @hiccup and @Messiaen) make the whole readme as much simple and clear for not advanced users as it possible?
and, of course, the big problem personally for me is that the english readme text must "sound" naturally for natives (without using awkward and uncommon words/phrases).
