Feedback

Hey, love this site so much!

I'm just wondering if there is away to access the pause button on videos when I snap the window to the left (reduce). I like to do this and snap my workspace/photoshop to the right so I can follow videos.

Occasionally I need to pause the video to follow along with the techniques and currently I have to full screen the video window. I know this is only a minor issue for me, but everything else on this site is so polished!

Thanks and keep up the work

What I do is increase my browser zoom size. It may work better for you to decrease the size but I notice when increasing the size the video kinda fills the screen a bit more.

To do this in firefox you go to View -> Zoom and there are a couple options that may help. (it should be around the same place in all browsers)

Other options include doing a top bottom bottom screen divide for example making the browser the top half and photoshop the bottom half.

Or get 2 screens haha and trust me once you have 2 screens you will never go back to 1.

And on a side note.... I think clicking anywhere on the video pauses and plays the video (I haven't tested just something in my memory says its true).

Thanks Hayden,

I'm working on getting a second screen soon, all of my problems will be sorted then :)

For some reason, when I click on the video, the video refreshes and goes back to the beginning. I did think it was a little strange so I'll test in another browser in-case its a user issue

Thanks

Hmm that is odd. I just tried it and when I click on the video is pauses and plays. Try not clicking where the play bar usually is.
