Cannot disable audio scroll on pause/play

Open univie opened this issue 9 years ago • 2 comments

When pressing the pause/play button, the window scrolls to the current sentence, even if audio scroll is disabled.

Thank you for your interest in Menestrello.

Actually, it was designed to behave that way, assuming the user paused the audio rendition to e.g. read forward/backward. So, when she resumes the audio rendition, even if "auto scroll" is disabled, the text scrolls back to the active text fragment.

So, I guess you would like to have a new setting, to disable this behavior, which seems reasonable to me.

Did I understand correctly your request?

Yes, or maybe check to see if the current sentence is at least partly inside the viewport and scroll only if it's completely outside the viewport.
