Hi Eugene -

Once generated, the shadow files should be in your chosen Export folder in the ShadowEditFiles sub-folder.

They'd only be regenerated if you had the "Shadow Files" option enabled in preferences.

So if you - disable it in preferences - save & close PD - delete the shadow files then re-open the project... they won't be re-generated, but if you re-open the project before switching preferences, they will!

Hi Eugen157,
You may wish to remove additional files manually such as the text files generated for the wave form in the audio tracks. Preferences>General>Manually Delete - click.

Thanks.

Have used PD now for over 1/2 year and time for a good house cleaning.(After a backup)

On a different subject: A different forum that I participated in, had a wishlist for users and over time many of those wishes found their way into subsequent updates. Does PD have such a thing?. High on my list would be a small VU meter. There are some free ones available but they are just too big.

Best regards to you all

Hey there Eugene,

The closest thing to a VU meter can be found when editing the audio in PowerDirector through Audio Director. It will show you the db levels during the audio editing. But I have to agree that some VU meters while editing the video on the timeline would be helpful to get an idea of the audio levels. The idea of the addition of VU meters can certainly be communicated to Cyberlink.
