[kdenlive] Monitor context menu: overlays

2016-03-05 Thread Harald Albrecht

Hi,

I'm currently writing a loose series about smaller and bigger Kdenlive 
UI improvements that were landed in the 15.x series. One thing that 
dazzles me as I don't seem to understand their difference is:


1. Monitor Info Overlay -- this shows the guide text or In Zone/Out Zone 
when the playhead is on the corresponding frame.


2. Monitor Overlay Markers -- seems to do the same.

What am I missing here? There sure is a difference in them, but which one?

With best regards,
Harald

Good point, I had to test it to remember what is the difference.

In fact, the "Monitor Info Overlay" is a global switch that turns on/off 
all overlays.


Then we have 3 different overlay options (timecode, safe zone, markers) 
that control individual option


Maybe we should rename "Monitor Info Overlay" to "Enable Monitor Overlay" ?

Hello Jean-Baptiste,

wouldn't this rather be "Enable all monitor overlays"? But is there 
really a need to have a global enable/disable? I find this difficult to 
understand?


BTW -- my small ramblings about Kdenlive tidbits can be found here:
