|-
||00:01
||Welcome to this SpokenTutorial on '''ConfigureMarble.'''
|-
||00:05
||In this tutorial we will, learn to configure,

|-
||00:07
|| '''Navigation''', '''Date and Time''' and '''Plugins'''
|-
||00:12
||To record this tutorial, I am using,

'''Ubuntu Linux OS''' version 16.04

|-
||00:19
|| '''Marble '''version 1.12.20 and

|-
|| 00:23
|| A working '''Internet''' connection.

|-
|| 00:26
||The process demonstrated in this tutorial is identical in,
|-
||00:31
||'''Ubuntu Linux OS''' version 18.04

'''Marble '''version 2.2.20
|-
|| 00:39
|| To practise this tutorial, learner should be familiar with '''Marble''' interface
|-
||00:44
||For the prerequisite '''Marble '''tutorials, please visit this site.

|-
|| 00:49
|| The files used in this tutorial are available in the '''Code Files''' link on this tutorial page.
|-
||00:55
||Please download and extract them.
|-
||00:58
||Make a copy and then use them while practising.
|-
||01:02
|| I have downloaded and saved the files to my '''Desktop'''.
|-
||01:06
||Let us first see what is '''configuration'''.

|-
||01:10
|| '''Configuration''' means arranging elements in a particular form.
|-
||01:15
|| It creates a different appearance of the interface.

|-
||01:19
|| I have opened the '''Marble '''interface in the default''' Atlas view.'''
|-
|| 01:24
|| Let us go the '''Settings''' menu.
|-
||01:26
||Click on '''Configure Marble Virtual Globe''' option.

|-
||01:31
||'''Configure '''window opens.
|-
||01:34
||Let us place the '''Configure''' window to the left of the interface.
|-
|| 01:38
|| The '''Configure''' window has two panels.

|-
||01:41
||Left panel has different menus.

|-
||01:45
||Right panel has different options for the corresponding menu.

|-
|| 01:49
|| Click on '''Navigation'''.

|-
||01:51
||'''Navigation menu''' opens in the right panel.

|-
|| 01:55
|| Under '''Dragging and Animation '''we have two check-boxes.

|-
||01:59
||'''Inertial Globe Rotation '''and '''Animate Voyage to the target.'''
|-
|| 02:04
|| '''Inertial Globe Rotation '''is checked by default.

|-
|| 02:07
||'''Inertial Globe Rotation '''enables '''kinetic''' spinning of the globe while dragging.

|-
||02:14
||I will move the '''Configure''' window to see the interface clearly.
|-
||02:19
|| Let us rotate the globe. Notice that globe is moving freely.
|-
|| 02:25
|| Let us uncheck the box to stop free spinning of the globe.
|-
||02:30
||Click on the '''Apply '''button in the box.
|-
||02:33
|| You can check''' Animate voyage to the target '''option on your own.
|-
||02:38
||I will move the '''Configure''' window back to its place.
|-
|| 02:42
|| Next click on '''Date and Time'''.
|-
||02:45
||'''Date and Time menu''' opens in the right panel.
|-
||02:49
|| Here, you can choose a date and time.
|-
||02:52
||This menu has two sections.
|-
||02:55
||'''Time zone '''and''' When Marble starts.'''

|-
|| 02:59
|| Under '''Time zone, System time zone''' is selected by default.

|-
||03:04
||This means '''Marble''' shows the time which is set in the system.

|-
||03:09
|| To set other time zones, '''Choose Time zone''' option.
|-
|| 03:14
|| '''Universal Time Coordinated''' drop-down button becomes active.

|-
||03:19
||Click on the up down arrow button.
|-
||03:22
||From the list, we can select any one of the time zones.

|-
|| 03:26
|| Now click on the '''System time zone''' radio button to show the system time.
|-
|| 03:32
||Next let us click on '''Plugins.'''
|-
||03:35
||Different '''plugins''' available in '''Marble''' are shown in the '''Plugins menu'''.
|-
|| 03:40
||'''Plugins''' are introduced by developers and other independent users.

|-
||03:46
||'''Plugins''' help to create new features on the interface.

|-
||03:50
||In the '''Plugins menu''' we can see a scroll bar at the right side of the window.

|-
|| 03:55
||Let us scroll down to the bottom to see all the available '''plugins'''.
|-
|| 04:00
||Each '''plugin''' can be activated or deactivated using the check box on the left.

|-
|| 04:06
||Observe that all the '''plugins''' are activated by default.
|-
|| 04:10
||Notice that some '''plugins''' are provided with a''' Configure''' button on the right side.

|-
||04:16
||It means that these '''plugins''' can be further configured.

|-
||04:20
||The '''plugins''' that do not have a '''Configure''' button cannot be configured further.
|-
||04:26
||Now let us go the '''Compass plugin'''.
|-
||04:29
||Click on the '''Configure''' button corresponding to '''Compass plugin'''.

|-
|| 04:34
||'''Configure Compass Plugin '''window opens.

|-
||04:37
||Window shows 4 '''Themes''' for '''Compass - Default, Arrows, Atom, Magnet'''.
|-
|| 04:46
||By default, '''Default theme''' is selected.

|-
||04:50
||Now I will select '''Arrows theme'''.

|-
||04:52
||Click on the '''Apply''' button, and then click on the '''OK''' button.
|-
|| 04:57
||Observe that '''theme''' for '''Compass''' has changed to '''Arrows'''.

|-
|| 05:00
||Now let us scroll down and locate '''Overview Map plugin.'''

|-
||05:05
||Click on the '''Configure''' button corresponding to '''Overview Map.'''

|-
||05:09
||'''Dialog''' box opens on the screen.
|-
|| 05:12
||Under '''Map Image, Planet Earth''' is selected by default.
|-
||05:17
||Below '''Planet''' we can see a rectangular button.
|-
|| 05:21
||Now we will change the default '''Overview map''' with a different map.

|-
||05:26
||Preview of the default map is shown in the '''Preview''' section along with the path.

|-
||05:32
||Click on the '''Preview map'''.

|-
||05:34
||The '''Preview map''' is shown on the rectangular button.
|-
|| 05:38
||Click on the button.

'''Choose Overview Map Marble Virtual Globe''' dialog box opens.
|-
||05:45
||Here we can select a map to replace the default '''overview map'''.
|-
|| 05:50
||'''World physical map dot svg file''' is provided in the '''Code files''' link.
|-
|| 05:55
||My file is saved in the '''Desktop''' folder.

|-
||05:59
||Double-click on the '''Desktop''' folder.

|-
|| 06:02
||The allowed file format is only ''' dot svg'''.

Select '''World physical map dot svg''' file.
|-
||06:10
||Sometimes on clicking the '''Open '''button, '''Marble''' application may close automatically.
|-
||06:16
||This is because '''Marble''' was not configured before to change the '''Overview map'''.

|-
|| 06:22
||Click on the '''Open''' button in the dialog box.
|-
|| 06:25
||'''World physical map '''is shown as a preview on the button.
|-
||06:28
||Click on the '''Apply''' button to see the changed '''overview map'''.
|-
|| 06:33
||we can adjust the size of '''Overview map''' using the '''Size''' drop-down button.
|-
||06:38
||Click on the arrow button to increase or decrease the size of '''overview map'''.
|-
|| 06:43
||Click on the '''Apply''' button to see the changes in the size of the '''overview map'''.
|-
|| 06:48
||Under '''Colors''', we have '''Position Indicator'''.
|-
|| 06:51
||Click on the button next to '''Position indicator'''.

|-
||06:55
||'''Color''' window opens on the screen.

|-
||06:57
||From the colour box, I will select red colour.

|-
||07:01
||Click on the '''OK''' button in the color box.
