Title: Photos/Binoculars
Post by: jfail on March 10, 2011, 19:41:46

Version 1.3.5 running fine.

Binoculars "V" do not seem to work for me.  What am I doing wrong?

What folder are photos stored in when pressing "F"?

Thanks

John

Thanks very much.  That also answered my question in another topic asking where the user control settings are.

You are very helpful to all of us on the forum and we appreciate it.  Your .PDF's for keyboard layout and key assignments have been a big help.

Have you had any problem with the "V" Binocular key?  I can't get it to work and I am pretty sure it worked fine in previous versions.

I have never used V for binocular mode - I just use the mouse wheel

Hello John,

Many thanks for your words of appreciation. I am pleased to learn that my PDFs are proving useful.

As for the "V" key, strangely it is working for me. But I did observe the zooming in / out is limited. As TFM has suggested, it would be best to use the mouse scroll wheel as it offers a much better scale of zoom compared to the "V" key.

Regards

Apparently it still works but as Vin_sun said it is limited in zooming scope compared to previous versions and that is what deceived me.

Hoy,
Yes, but taking pictures was better with the 2008 version,an extra button so that it is more easy to take pics from any place outside.

Fully agree Marc ...... with SSE we now have to be dependent on FRAPS to do the job.  :doh:
