'Quick cuts' for Retrovol.....
Posted: Wed 30 Aug 2017, 16:27
Afternoon, everyone.
One very quick little 'how-to' for y'all today. For those of us running JWM as the window manager, I've made a (second) neat little discovery about the Retrovol volume control.
When I first started with Puppy, I used to click (to get the volume bar up), then I would use the cursor (left-click and hold) to move the 'level' up and down the bar to where I wanted it.
About 4 months ago, I discovered that you can place the cursor over the volume icon, click (to bring up the bar), followed by scrolling to move the level up & down.
Last night I discovered that you don't even need to bring the bar up! Just place the cursor over the volume icon, and simply scroll up or down. The level will rise (or fall) to where you want it.....and the 'tooltip' will tell you where the level is.
Handy.....or what?
Mike.
