Description
One thing about the grid, i always felt: The _difference_ between Beat & Tick **dividers**, (the lines) are imo not 'clear', and distinctness of these lines are even more difficult in higher magnification, where the lines really are not changing in width:
Here scaling to 200 % is shown in gimp to tr. and lmms 200% to tl.
Ofcause lmms will only scale horizontally, they keyboard is the reason for that, but the divider-lines are not scaled, and tick and beat dividers are very similar, as you can see in the screenie.
I have used CSS and it work better with this alpha-220 setup
But the Beat & Tick-dividers are still very similar
If CSS could give an option like:
It would be a huge help.
The mockup is ofcause ugly.
What are everyones thoughts on divider-line differences?
Another thing that will enhance the workflow in piano-roll, is alternate shading of bars, as known in song-editor #2308
