Description

<setup interface="AB" projectReturn="save.php" randomiseOrder='true' testPages="2" loudness="-23" sampleRate="44100">

the value in testPages is ignored. actual value is inferred by the number of <page> elements in the document.

I would recommend that we have an option like "auto" (or "-1") to be able to automatically infer it from the number of elements (as it currently does), as this could have interesting applications. Also, might be related with #1298 ?

History

#1 Updated by Nicholas Jillings almost 9 years ago

The default is to set it to 0, which triggers the page to ignore it. Appears that it is always being ignored.

It worked for me now, there was a bug which would introduce one more page than normal, but confirmed it is working. The on page element also uses the correct format.

I like the idea of negative numbers, would be an interesting way to do it. Although it could get confusing if 1 means "do only one" and -1 means "do one less than", especially when you start using repeated pages.

Reopened:
set the number of pages to 0 and it will still show 1 page.

testPage=0 is the default for saying 'ignore' since you cannot have 0 test pages.
