We have now added text to the Digital Media Library.
We have now added text to the Digital Media Library so that those who wish to read along with the audio or by themselves may do so. To open the text, hover over the desired track and a ‘Read Text’ icon will appear to the right. Click on the icon and another tab will open which will display the corresponding text. If you want to read the text without the audio, hover over the track and only click the ‘Read Text’ icon, without clicking the track itself.
If you are looking for a word or phrase in the text, we have added a search feature. Just type in the word or phrase and click ‘Search’ or press ‘Enter’ on the keyboard. Every instance of the word/phrase will be highlighted. To go to the next instance it is found in the text, press ‘Enter’ on the keyboard again and the next hit will be shown. This feature is very useful if you are trying to follow along with the audio portion but don’t know where in the text the speaker is. This is not intended to be a search program, but it can be useful in helping you find your place in the text. The search feature only searches in the text that is open currently.
You can also enlarge the text for easier viewing. To do this, press the ‘Ctrl’ and ‘Alt’ keys at the same time and scroll forward on your mouse’s scroll wheel. If your mouse does not have a scroll wheel, then navigate to ‘View’ in your browser menu bar and select ‘Zoom’. This feature is very useful for those with vision problems or those displaying the text on an overhead projector.
