Hello,
Camtasia 9.1.2 for Windows was released on March 13, 2018. In addition to several other improvements , we implemented some improvements to the editor user interface (UI) to address concerns with legibility and fatigue with extended use. In the fall of 2017, we worked with a group of users to test several prototypes with color and contrast changes to ensure that these changes reflected an improvement in their experience.
To guide our improvements efforts, we began with the WCAG 2.0 level AA contrast ratio of 4.5:1 as our target for the editor UI. In testing our prototype, we found for some areas a contrast above 4.5:1 resulted in better experience for the test participants. The 9.1.2 editor UI reflects contrast ratios of 4.5:1 and, in some areas 7:1 and above.
At this time, we do not have plans to invest in features for switchable (light vs dark) UI or user adjustable contrast controls.
We will continue to listen to feedback from multiple channels, including this Community, to evaluate further improvements for the varying needs of our customers.
Thank you to those that participated in testing our prototypes and to our customers that continue to provide feedback.

About big improvements : What about creating a Media Bin folder configurable in each project ? This could solve the nightmare of long life file management and team working on the same projects...
Thanks to think about this for pro users,
Alain

Ha ha ha So you can ignore us? Say here you go. We tried but this is the best we can do.
Now start squinting and live with it.

after last update the sound of my video's aren't in sync with the image anymore. Terrible quality now
I doubt that that has anything to do with the upgrade, otherwise all of us would have noticed it. I've not seen any other complaint along these lines, and given how long 9.1.2 has been out now, I would have expected to had it broken this.
It could be that you were caught out by ripple delete's exciting behavioural quirks. I learnt the hard way to only delete selections, not split sections of a track unless they're right at the end. (Otherwise the only things that "ripple" are the ones on the tracks that you delete sections from, leaving assets on other tracks out of sync.)
It may be something else, but it will almost certainly be a project issue, not a version issue.

Ok, so if I delete a piece of video, I can better only use the delete option instead of the ripple delete?
I do use the ripple delete option more often nowadays, so that could explain it

No, ripple delete is fine; you just have to be careful to select the entire selection to be deleted using the red and green marker points. If you delete just a segment of a track, it will ripple delete whatever is on that track... but not on other tracks. However looking at your other thread, I don't think that's your problem.
Thanks, Mal

I use Media Composer, Edius and Resolve for video editing, and the UI of Camtasia is now on a par with those. Only MC offers any UI colour/contrast control, and MC is many times the cost of Camtasia. And once set ... never used again. Hardly one finger territory.
