Some things that aren't quite bugs but poor design:
- The activation screen cannot be closed except by bringing up Task Manager. Very rude!
- I can't view any of the videos on the Rev Online Learning Center site. It tries to download a codec ("tscc?") but fails to do so. Attempted on multiple machines. The videos shouldn't require a special codec, or the codec should be installed with Revolution. (I was able to search for the codec on Goole and install it from http://www.techsmith.com/products/studio/codecdownload.asp )
- Why are the videos opening in in Windows Media player anyway? I thought Rev was the ultimate multimedia authoring tool. Shouldn't we be viewing inline video, if not all-singing and dancing animations and stuff? (ooooh, maybe Rev can't play a "card within a card?")
- In the Sample Scripts section, The user can't select/copy any of the text in the "Solution:" script examples. What is the point of that? You can copy the rest of the text.
- Whenever a list of stuff is shown (i.e., if you view all sample scripts and get the blue-bar list) it's not obvious that clicking it will bring you to the page describing it. There should at least be a view "button"
- Why is using "send" more reliable/preferred to using a repeat loop? (99 bottles of beer example)
- Adding a scrollbar to a field when the contents overflow it: i click after the colon, type a letter, scrollbar appears. (even though the field hasn't technically overflowed yet). I type backspace, scrollbar disables but is still present.
- When loading a page in the "Video Tutorials" section, the introductory paragraph(s) appear, then there is a pause while the video downloads. It is not obvious until I hunt all over the screen and notice the "Downloading..." message in the lower-left corner what is happening. When the download completes, a whole bunch more text suddenly appears below the "Play" button. Wouldn't it be better if all the text appeared, and the "Play" button was disabled and displayed (Downloading 43%) or something?
