The dragging thing is very nice! I don't remember what you have planned, or what's in scope for 1.3, but I find myself thinking 1) I'd like to be able to right click, pick from a menu, and insert a tempo right on the ruler, without bothering with the clunky dialog. I'm currently having trouble getting the clunky dialog to come up such that a newly added tempo wants to go anywhere other than where the existing tempo already is. I tried positioning the playback pointer and double clicking, I tried opening a notation view, positioning the insertion cursor and double clicking, and it always wanted to go at 1:1:0, where the first tempo I inserted was. (I'm not working from the new autoload, if that matters.) I have 10 instances of this dialog open. Is there some way we can just re-use one that's already there if it exists? There's a drawing problem. I opened the notation view, and the tempo and color got drawn somewhere way off too far to the right, by about 2.5 measures. The empty space has some random memory data, a bit of the parameters dock widget, and a bit of plain gray with a line through it that looks like some ruler bit drawing out of bounds, then the tempo and color come up to the right of this. Triggering a repaint seems to cure this. I switched desktops to come over here to KMail, and then went to refer back to it, and the problem had vanished. I closed the view, and opened another, and it recurred. 2) I'd like to be able to drag these things from side to side too. Anyway, good stuff. Did we ever rename "loops" to "ranges" in the interface? Are we going to? That's something else really useful we really need to get word out about somehow, along with several other things, but I can guarantee I don't have time for documentation before the deadline with all the bugs I have outstanding at the moment. I'm in a bit of a hurry, so these observations are just off the cuff. I'm off to go practice, and then hit the road. -- D.
