Change name of "Clip Monitor" to something more polished? "Source" or "Preview" Monitor?
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Small idea to bring to the table for discussion. As a continued believer of polish and presence, I'm always looking for improvements, big and small, to the interface, which can include re-evaluating things that have been there for years that may mandate an update.

I've always thought that "Clip Monitor" seemed very bland. Anyone have any thoughts on possibly changing the Widget title to something more like "Source Monitor" (similar to Premiere Pro), or "Preview Monitor" (to follow suit with its Industry purpose)?

Dev's, feel free to close this task if found unnecessary or unsuitable. :)

Hmm. Preview sounds ambiguous to me, as we also have the timeline/project preview. Personally, I find the current wording to be intuitive and concise: I have clips and I preview them. I have a project and preview that. Source monitor might be an idea though.

Fair points, thediveo. I'd be for Source Monitor. :) It's not that I want Kdenlive to copy other editors, but rather make it more user-friendly for others to migrate over from the bigger names. I also think Source sounds cooler, haha.

Valid point, we are currently reconsidering the naming of Project Bin, Bin Clips etc. we will track this elsewhere. Thanks
