Anyway to disable all of the sounds?

I'll start off with a thank you for creating freerapid which I really like and use a lot.

Unfortunately, after upgrading to the new version I'm stuck with "File added" sounds and stuff. They are driving me nuts and I can't stand them. I've searched the preferences and can't for the life of me figure out how to disable them. I had the old version set up so that the only time a sound was heard was when there was an error. Please tell me how I can get rid of these sounds.

Thanks, and great work on the project!

What system do you use?
Uncomment -DblindMode=false in startup.properties.

I'm using Linux. Thank you very much Vity, that worked like a charm! The sounds weren't bad, they just kind of interrupted and caught me off guard a few times.

Thanks again,

Have a good one~

And which distribution?
The new sounds are enabled automatically, because special user accessibility for blind people is detected.
(yes, FRD is also used by blind people)

I am using openSUSE(gnome) can you tell me the path where i can find this property file ?

FRD's root directory

-------------------------------------

Couldn't find it under any of the below folders:-
/usr/bin
/usr/share/FreeRapid
/usr/share/applications
/usr/share/pixmaps
/usr/share/FreeRapid/plugins
/usr/share/java/FreeRapid
/usr/share/doc/packages/FreeRapid
/usr/share/java/FreeRapid/lib
/usr/share/java/FreeRapid/lookandfeel
/home/UserName/.FRD


Should i simply create a file and put it into one of these directories adn add "-DblindMode=false" to this file and restart the application ?

It may help, but you are using some unsupported Linux distribution.
The original and supported is available in download section.

I got this from packman repositories,is it not the standard way of obtaining this software?

No. It's unofficial.
