Took me a while to realize you're referring to the 'segment parameter box' :) > I'm happy to look into this if you like. I'm not too familiar with how this all fits together yet. It'd be cool if you could look at it, and i'll try to follow how you do it so I can start adding this to my own coding repetoire :). Same for having the changes from the notation view flow back to the segment parameter preset box. > Also, segment colors aren't carried through.

I'm not against it, but I'm not entirely sure this will be the sensible thing to do in all cases - who knows what people might use those colors for... On the other hand, you certainly know better than me, and you seem to have a preference for applying colors too, so I say go right ahead :) > Um.

Interesting idea - personally I generally don't bother with instruments much as most midi horns sound awful (at least on my setup) anyway. But I'm probably a bit of an a-typical RG user :). Thanks for all the kind words! Arnout |
