Hi No response here so committed it on the basis of 'we can always change it back'. I think this is an improvement to usability of the label tracks. Hope this works for you.

And inconsistent with having the circley thing, (which I quite like)? I didn't add the border to the text rectangle, just dropped the bar and draggers down to the bottom of the text rectangle. If you are thinking of making a double-thick border like | =====----------- | fish | | | =====----------- | (pardon the ascii-art) then won't we get double-thick lines when the RH draggers are visible? With regards the asymmetry, I think it looks rather like the AdornedRuler with the text above the line, or as a bar with a little tag stuck up from it. See http://members.aol.com/martynshaw/label-idea2.gif for another view. Also we could save a few pixels by reducing the rather generous font size and use the same font as everything else. Are there any other ideas out there?

If we do this, I think the border should be added both above and below the text rectangle. I can see that displacing the 'dragger' downwards as you have done gives something to grab, but I don't like the asymmetric look of it at all. Perhaps we could make it so that the vertical line is draggable in the same way as selection boundary, i.e. cursor changes when you hover over it? Then we stay symmetric and don't have to move the dragger. We'd also use slightly less screen real estate. --James ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
