Iimportant changes for telestrator

So far this is working great, however:
1. the CLEAR (trash can icon) button is small, and in the middle of two other buttons...it is way too easy on a touchscreen to press the wrong button...that super important button MUST be bigger and by itself so it's easy to press often, and without mistakes. I think this change needs to happen before I'll be able to deploy the telestrator in productions.
2. an option to switch the laser pointer to bright green would be great for some situations, like our use case where the red is barely visible on our projection, but green would show up great.
3. right now the "full screen" option doesn't include the buttons...would be nice if it could as an option
4. it would be nice to have an option to predetermine the size of the images being placed...whether it's one of the built in numbers or a custom image, sometimes having to pay attention to how big it is would be annoying when the presenter just wants to put it on the screen quickly and easily.

hmm, Where to put it then ? and wouldn't that apply to all other buttons aswell ? on a touchscreen you have to look anyway in contrast to tactical buttons I dont know what screen you are using but i found that even on my laptopscreen or tablet they are just fine ( on tablet i use sometimes a pen) Quote: 2. an option to switch the laser pointer to bright green would be great for some situations, like our use case where the red is barely visible on our projection, but green would show up great.
would be nice Quote: 3. right now the "full screen" option doesn't include the buttons...would be nice if it could as an option
What about the other items then, selecting drawing tools etc ? would taht not become the same as the basic window?

Would be nice .... but having to pay attention is the name of the game not ? ;-) WOuld be nice if first improvements where to be moving items allready there or individuall removing them . Having shortcuts for some of the functions would be great. That said its a nice new (free) practical addition as is for now and will surely improve BTW using Opera Mini browser on android allows fullscreen browser window ;-)

NO, BECAUSE IT WOULD BE FULLSCREEN Quote:Quote: 4. it would be nice to have an option to predetermine the size of the images being placed...whether it's one of the built in numbers or a custom image, sometimes having to pay attention to how big it is would be annoying when the presenter just wants to put it on the screen quickly and easily.

This shortcut could be combined with other shortcuts like start or stop a replay, so multiple functions can be executed with one keystroke/button. Shortcut to Fullscreen Telestrator Shortcut to change Color Shortcut to change selected tool: drawing, image, box, etc. Basically, a shortcut to execute any Telestrator function. - Tom

I would have some additional suggestions that seem important to me:
- The option to activate/deactivate some of the painting buttons for special purposes
- I really would prefer to use several predefined colors rather than having the color palette. For commentators a much more useful thing.
- I miss to have some feedbacks on the configurable buttons. If I want to let the commentator decide when to start or stop the telestrator overlay, it may be great to let him have one button OVL ON and one button OVL OFF. Currently you can't exactly have an information what setting is currently live.
