Page 34: What do the yellow triangles mean?

-- SimonAmarasingham - 09 Jan 2004

Individual Sounds are grouped into Sound files and saved on disk. When you make a change to a Sound, the Browser shows a yellow triangle next to it to indicate that it is changed in RAM but that the changes haven't been saved to the disk yet. There is no way to save just that one Sound to the disk; you have to save the entire Sound file. In the Browser, this would be all the Sounds in the indented list below the Sound File name. -- CarlaScaletti - 09 Jan 2004

Right - I got that much, however say I'm editing 2 Sound Files, called 'em (imaginatively) A and B. Both A and B have yellow traingles next to them and I want to keep changes to A but discard those for B. With the focus on the window for A, I ctrl-S to save, but in the browser the yellow traingles still exist for both. If I go to refresh the browser it asks me whether I want to save or discard changes. I think I've already saved A, but being a newbie, I'm nervous about it. This happend to me as I was working through the tutorials and editing both my own Sound File (A) and one from Kyma's "factory presets" (B).

Which page was this? Do you think a forward reference would be helpful there?

-- CarlaScaletti - 09 Jan 2004

Sure - you could forward reference to "Inserting a Sound into the Signal Flow Path" on page 101
