Interface fixes

Had one of my final meetings with my developer today. She's fixing the last few bits after I showed her some results from the case studies. This is what she will be looking at:

1. Changing the percentage of the time that a story will stay / change.
There is a 70% chance that the recorded story will keep going when the user clicks.
There is a 30% chance that it will change to another story.
The reason for this is that there are some stories that are quite long, and some of the users were listening to the story without interacting with the rest of the interface.

2. The parameters for the width and height of each video are going to be more extreme, now ranging from a minimum of 10 (% of the screen) to a maximum of 70. (Before these were set to 30, 50)

3. Since the user can now pinch to zoom in and out, sometimes when the interface is zoomed out completely, one can see the edge of the application and it is aligned to the left. Maria is going to try and centralise it.

4. Hiding the scrollbar using a Chrome plug-in.

5. Now that the water colours have sounds attached to them I'm going to give them a lower chance of coming up, something like 30%. This will avoid too many overlapping sounds that might cause frustration.

6. There doesn't always have to be a recorded story in the background.

7. Resizing and moving videos will not be available during the show but will be an option when the application is online (due to the touch screen multi-function).

8. Automatic refresh will happen every 30mins, otherwise the user can simply click F5 to restart the application from the beginning.
