Setting up the Livepad

Access to the Livepad and the facility are designed to be very barrier-low.

First steps

You have received a Livepad link: Please click and open in any browser. It is advisable to use the latest browser version.
Now you can see the Livepad interface. If you want, you can join the chat on the right or below (depending on your device and screen size): Please enter your name (or alias). However, you can also use the Livepad without activating the chat and read along with the text.
To customize the Livepad display, you already have an extensive selection of font sizes and color schemes at the top left. Under the "Settings" button (cog symbol) you can set up the font and background even more individually according to your needs.
Under the "Settings" button you also have other options, e.g. displaying line numbers or deleting chat messages. Here means:
  • Slider to the right and green: Option is switched on.
  • Slider to the left and grey: Option is switched off.

During use

By default, the autoscroll function is switched on. This means that the last, most up-to-date line is automatically displayed. If you want to read text further up in the Livepad, you can deactivate the auto-scroll function and activate it again if necessary.
You have various display options during use:
  • You can use Livepad like subtitles by resizing Livepad's browser window and positioning it next to, below, or above another application.
  • You can show the chat window and communicate with other users (default setting).
  • You can hide the chat to avoid potentially distracting messages (double click "chat icon"). You can fully concentrate on the text in full screen mode (click icon "Full screen mode").

That's us

We are a network of three freelance speech-to-text interpreters (STTI). The Livepad emerged in 2020 from our practice as speech-to-text interpreters. In addition to our own experiences, suggestions from colleagues have always been incorporated into the further development of the Livepad. So it remains - on a professional basis - a work in progress close to the needs and requirements of the professional practice of speech-to-text interpreters.
