WTF Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Hi ! When clicking on a subtitle, the cursor is put at the end, outside the subtitle, so it is not display on the screen, which is very inconvenient for setting appearance. Expected behavior: clicking on a subtitle put cursor at subtitle start, with subtitle visible on screen. Did I missed something ? Thanks for listening !

borate Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 To see the subtitle text, first click on the top entry THEN on the title you want. Odd, but it seems to do the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WTF Posted February 17, 2017 Author Share Posted February 17, 2017 Thanks for the help, it doesn't work for me, probably something with timecode rounding. As the idea is the minimize the amount of clicks and propose a user-friendly experience for subtitle editing/styling, I contacted support for Feature Request. Hoping to get heard, as this occurs for every subtitles, it can quickly make subtitle editing frustrating. ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borate Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Worked here on non-contiguous titles. When they are, clicking the PREVIOUS FRAME button after clicking the title brings them up, but that is an extra step. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WTF Posted February 17, 2017 Author Share Posted February 17, 2017 Thanks, it will help ! PREVIOUS FRAME button after clicking the title brings them up, but that is an extra step. I'm sure this could be fixed NCH, but it would be even better if the cursor was placed at the subtitles start, so that we can check if it is really in sync. That's why I wrote the FR.

Nationalsolo Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Hi As you noted...On clicking the subtitle from the list the cursor will jump to the end of the highlighted section but as you pointed out this is not logical and will not display the subtitle in the preview screen. As a quick workaround....... Add the subtitles. They will appear between the IN/OUT markers whose section which will be highlighted.) Click the subtitle you want to check in the list on the right. The cursor will jump to the end of the highlighted section. Click the Go to Start button ( I< ) This will place the cursor at the start of the highlighted section and display the first frame of that subtitle. You can now easily verify its position. If it is not in the correct place use the Previous Frame or the Next Frame buttons to step the cursor line forwards or backwords and then the Start button to reset the IN point.

c_major Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 @WTF I tried subtitle editing myself and found it is working okay. The cursor stop at the end is actually intended for adding continuous subtitles since new subtitles are always inserted at cursor position. The only problem I can see here is that the text didn't show up when you click on a subtitle. I can't see this happen in the latest English version. I just noticed you are using a non-English version which is not updated as often as the English one. Please try the latest English version. This issue might already been fixed.
