Hi Tim, hi all, > Here ya go Jens.
Thanks, Tim, it works :-) > If we all can agree on a pleasing Colour Config File before release, > we'll go with that as a default. > > Deal? Yes ;-) Before I start tweaking colors for a possible different Colour Config file, I would like to make the following suggestions for the Colors tab in the Apperance Settings: a) Suggestion 1: The Colors tab should contain two Reset buttons: One button that resets a changed color of an individual graphical element to its original (first) color, and another Reset button which resets all changed colors of all invididual graphical elements to their original (first) colors. b) Suggestion 2: When f.e. "Arranger", "Big Time", "Transport" and so on is clicked in the Colors tab, i.e. items whose colors cannot be changed, then all color options are NOT displayed to the right for "Arranger", "Big Time", "Transport" and so on. This avoids users being surprised that f.e. the "Choose color" button does not display the color chosing window - this happened to me today, first I thought that the "Choose color" button does not work, then I found out the reason for this behaviour.. Regards, Jens PS: I do not know if this email is distributed by the developers mailing list to all recipients. Yesterday two of my mails to this mailing list were not sent back to my email account [email protected], or they were sent back to my mail account, but I did not receive them. I informed Robert about this in another email from today. Am Mittwoch, 13. April 2016, 03:58:28 schrieb Tim E.
