Description

Issue type

Undocked Transport UI — Tempo display ambiguity

Bug description

It's likely that users will assume that the Transport’s tempo mark is the current tempo, as set in the score—but that is true only when the Tempo override setting is at 100%.

I think it’s best to:

• show actual current tempo in the Transport
• show the relative tempo inline with the Tempo override slider. (And please bring back the tempo override field!)

Steps to reproduce
  1. Open MS4.01
  2. Undock the Transport to reveal the Tempo override slider.
  3. Set the tempo to a value other than 100%

Result: The Transport's Tempo mark displays the relative tempo as affected by the Tempo override percentage.
