I personally disliked the old bars and found them clumsy to use. You can still delete multiple points, just select and then delete with the "delete" tool (same as used for events in the piano roll). One thing I think would be helpful for the controller rulers would be for the barlines from the matrix to be extended down below on the ruler, so you can align controller points to beats. > Another problem is that Rosegarden seems to take a long time to start > up these days.

Now that Rosegarden no longer relies on KDE it starts right up for me, and I am using a pretty old machine with only 2G of RAM. I'm not using any synth plugins, however, or any other plugins with Rosegarden, for that matter (and I have a ton of LADSPA plugins on my machine) > Rosegarden also crashes a lot these days.

Specs of your machine? Do you compile from source or use distro supplied RG? I've found Rosegarden to be fairly stable, and have put it through some pretty heavy orchestral pieces in the past year with very few crashes. -- Brett W.
