You can reach the preferences window in the Application Menu (next to Activities in the top left corner. There are three tabs: Waveform, Controls and Window.

# Waveform

Resolution: The resolution of the waveform image is given in pixels per second, e.g. the default resolution of 100 means, that one second is shown with a width of 100 pixels.

Fixed vs. moving cursor: There are two modes, how to follow the cursor. On slower systems a moving cursor might be smoother.

Show time scale: Turn the time scale on or off.

# Kontrolkirin

Jump back on pause: Parlatype will rewind a few seconds on each pause, this way you can easier resume typing. Set this value to 0 if you don't want this behaviour.

Jump back: Configures how many seconds to skip when the Jump back button is pressed.

Jump forward: Configures how many seconds to skip when the Jump forward button is pressed.

# Pencere

Remember size: On start-up Parlatype sets the window size to the size it had the last time.

Remember position: On start-up Parlatype can position its window where you had it when you closed Parlatype last time.

Start on top: This will put Parlatype on start-up on top of other windows. This might be useful if you are working with a maximized word processor and still want to see the Parlatype window.

Remember position and Start on top are not available on Wayland.
