Subject:Help with RoboDemo From:"Lisa A. Roth" <roth -dot- lisa -at- jimmy -dot- harvard -dot- edu> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Tue, 04 May 2004 14:00:42 -0400
Hi there,
I am relatively new at using RoboDemo, and have encountered a situation
where some viewers mention that the simulation is slow for their tastes,
while others think it's a bit fast sometimes.
Being that our demo contains quite a bit of interactivity, has anyone
out there found a way to allow the user to have somewhat more control
over the pace? I am looking for something beyond the
stop/pause/play/etc. playback control. What I am most interested in is
whether there are any ways to allow the demo to advance as soon as a
user has done the correct action without waiting for the caption to time
out. If there is such a setting, my theory is that the faster users can
advance at a comfortable pace while still providing the slower readers
with an adequate amount of time to do what they need.
Does anyone have a strategy for this, or am I trying to have my cake and
eat it too?
