Edit auto-intro message

[lughsan]

Hello Dimitry, how are you?

How can I remove the auto-intro message?

The top bar shows the remaining intro time for a track. The countdown at the bottom appears when Auto Intro is about to play for the music track. Why do you want those to be removed?

The idea is not to delete them, the idea is to have the option to hide them.

For the person who programs it, it is correct that it appears.

but it is not necessary for normal users.

I find it unsightly for the general view.

Thank you for the suggestion. We'll add an option to show/hide the intro countdown. Auto Intro will always be shown if Auto Intro is applied for a track.

Hello. It would be good if the top bar showing the remaining time after the intro played didn't disappear. Or add it as an option. Thanks

Yes, it would be nice to always see the bar, even if it's empty, with the word "INTRO" next to it to the left of the bar.
Or it could be called "OUTRO" when the outro is approaching (if present - otherwise nothing - it remains empty but always visible).

Why did you choose to put this "Auto Intro" countdown right there and in this different font?

What purpose will it serve?

This bar shows intro+outro when the tracks are transitioned. Same question, why keep this bar always visible?

This section shows current track's information, so Auto Intro is there. The green area is already loaded with other information so the countdown was put in the unused space below this bar. Is there something wrong with this solution? If so, suggestions are welcome.

A touch of style to change the look of RadioBOSS a bit.
Isn't that a great idea?

Always to have a new area on the air.
Where the announcer knows the intro and outro will always "scroll."
In view of the new colored Intro 1/2 Points, it would be nice to see a new segment always visible.
Or make it opaque when not in use.

Think about it... I just have an idea.

Maybe make it the same size/font chosen in Settings > Style.
This is for consistency across the software.

Of course, you can let the user decide whether to enable or disable these new settings.
Make everything available in the advanced settings.
I like it when the developer gives me the freedom to choose and not be restricted.



I hope to see many new features in RadioBOSS 8 in 2026! I can't wait.
I'm very happy with how your staff is working on it and how it will improve year after year.
Well done!

I'm not sure about it, the Intro bar will stay full and show "0", doesn't seem very useful Now it's very distinctly visible if the track is in the "intro" zone or not.

Maybe you can post an image with the example? Yes, for two intro options this will look different.

The font size for Auto Intro countdown is "Main window font" in Settings->Style.

It's still important to only add useful stuff, even to the advanced options section. Every feature needs to be checked first before being added. Otherwise, the software will quickly become bloated and unmanageable.

I guess RadioBOSS 8 will be released after 2030 or so, major version numbers here are the second number, that is, next major update is 7.2, not 8
