For an example of how someone put them to good use, look at Steve Conrad's bogus-surf-jam. I was going to look at it myself until I remembered I don't have a runable Rosegarden currently. Oops. I think having them as tooltips would make it a lot less intuitive stringing little bits of stuff together like that. You'd have a lot of anonymous, generic segments, perhaps color coded in some fashion, and you'd have to hover over each one to see what it is. For my own use, I used to use markers to indicate the sorts of things I now indicate with segment labels. Our marker facility kind of sucks. Our label facility (judging as someone who has been running 1.0 exclusively for the last couple of weeks) is easy to use, and convenient. I think it's just fine. The only thing that's kind of dumb is the (copied)(split)(split) (copied)(split) nonsense tacked on the end, but I guess even that is better than the alternative of giving the copies some name like "foodiddle1" "foodiddle2" etc. -- Michael McIntyre ---- Silvan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Linux fanatic, and certified Geek; registered Linux user #243621 http://www.geocities.com/Paris/Rue/5407/ http://rosegarden.sourceforge.net/tutorial/ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Oracle Space Sweepstakes Want to be the first software developer in space?
