[Rwp] Panning an Item

[Jim Snowbarger]

Ah, the ubiquitous apply button,  I thought OK would do it, but not.  Yes,
that's pretty unhandy.  JAWS announces that the slider gained focus, but it
doesn't read the value.  

I may need to look into that as a stop gap measure for now.

Thanks for the tip!

Hi Jim,

The values of those sliders can indeed be changed. The reason you don't hear
any difference is because the changes only take effect when you press the
Apply button in the Item Properties dialog. I found that we are able to tab
to these volume and pan sliders, but NVDA doesn't say anything when they
gain focus. I'm not sure what JAWS does. Hope this helps.

Regards,

Gavin

This is pretty basic, but I could use a little hand holding about how to do
it.

 

I had imported an item, with a voice in the center of a stereo pair.  In one
part of that item, the voice had been dragged off center a little, and I
wanted to fix it.

 

So, I split this item into three items, with the middle item having the
panning problem.  Now, I want to pan that item slightly to correct for the
offset.

 

So, I select the middle item,  by first choosing the track, then
control+right arrowing to that item.

So, I think I have the item of interest selected.

 

Shift+f2 takes me to item properties, and I found a pan slider in there.
But, unless the screen reader is lying to me, that pan slider can't be
changed and, in any case, doesn't seem to have any affect.

Maybe I don't really want to pan the item, but to use automation  before and
after the offending passage to  adjust it.  But, I don't know how to do
that.

 

Can anybody get me going here?

Thanks a lot.
