"slider - set the insertion level for the spinning CD, 0: desactivated --> 1: default value (update 1.5.1) | CD position; "
OK... I turned the "CD Position" slider to zero, but the "Performance info" window still says "Show spinning CD: yes", after clicking "OK" and even after a restart.
This is confusing... is it still being rendered just off the screen? That's why I thought it must be missing a checkbox somewhere. I realize now that the "Show spinning CD: yes" message is tied to the "Performance and quality" slider, which is kind of confusing in itself.
I think a simple "on/off" checkbox would make things a lot clearer... just my two cents. :)
Ok for that: I've just forgetten to relay the information on the "Performance info" panel. As spinning CD is also a setting for "Performance & quality" slider, the Performance info actually said "yes", sorry for the confusion. Don't worry, the Spinning CD is really desactivated when set to 0, the user setting "CD position" major the "Performance & quality" setting.
The info panel will be corrected for the next update.
It's difficult to present setting with ergonomy because I only got one way to do this: 1 colomn, x raws and I need to take care about little resolutions screens...
Meanwhile, I hope you'll continue to enjoy BeComposed. Have fun, Merry Christmas.
