Shared draft interaction; cue providers own their settings and preview facts.
Edit a private tone draft. Up and Down select items; Left and Right change sections. Shift-Left and Shift-Right adjust numbers. Enter sets an exact number, toggles Pitch sweep, or opens a choice list. Browsing a choice list changes nothing until Enter. Space or b interrupts main speech and plays the draft tone alone. C plays the applied tone; P reads a sample with the draft. S stops, without saving. Preview comes before Presets in the section order. L loads a preset into the draft; N saves a named preset without changing the cue. A applies the draft for this session; W saves and applies tone defaults through Customize. q or C-g returns and discards unapplied edits; C-q closes all menus. Applied and saved changes remain. Timing, cue enablement, voice and earcon choices belong to the parent menu; shared main-tone volume belongs in Output settings.
Choose the ADSR curve from a list. Up and Down browse without changing the draft. Enter selects and returns; q cancels. Only ADSR uses this curve. Preview with Space back in the editor.
Choose the draft envelope from a list. The envelope controls loudness over the life of the tone. Up and Down browse; Enter selects and returns, while q cancels. Classic uses short endpoint fades. ADSR uses Attack, Decay, Sustain level and Release in the editor. Selecting does not preview or apply the draft; use Space after returning to hear it.
Choose a starting point for the private tone draft. Arrows browse without changing anything. Enter loads a copy and returns; q cancels. Space in the editor plays the resulting draft.
Choose the draft waveform from a list. Up and Down browse without changing the draft. Enter selects and returns; q cancels. Preview with Space after returning to the editor. Only Pulse uses the editor’s separate Pulse width control.
Named personal tone drafts, saved independently of any cue’s defaults. Each entry contains a name and a tone-editor draft. Loading changes only the private draft; Apply or Save and apply changes the destination cue.
