I don't have a color suggestion in mind at the moment. I don't like these colors either, but I'm sure whatever I suggest will immediately get pissed on. I guess in my own personal stuff, I usually change every segment to a non-default color immediately, and in the future we will have a way of automating this kind of thing. We're talking about templates to load for a trumpet part, for example, and such templates would come with a color (clef, transposition, lowest note, highest note) to affect newly drawn segments. Every such instrument would come with its own factory supplied default color, so Rosegarden Puke Green #3 might just about disappear of its own accord without specifically changing it as the default default. We could, and I think I would like to supply an autoload where every generic track/instrument has its own default color for new segments too. Just to showcase the potential, and encourage people to discover it. For MIDI anyway. Not sure about DSSI or audio. No thoughts about that yet at all one way or the other. If we change the default audio color, I probably need to be the one to put it into effect. Nobody else is likely to find all the pieces of that hack that brought it about in the first place. > I think the background pixmap for the main canvas will probably do, but > if anyone out there with taste would like to propose an alternative, go > ahead.

A good introduction to Tinkering With Rosegarden 101 for anyone sitting on the fence debating whether to get involved with development. -- D.
