Alternative "Menu" span/template colours:

Please add you own suggestions.

  1. Click on Effect >Amplify The current - background is #FFFFCC
  2. Click on Effect >Amplify #FFEEAA
  3. Click on Effect >Amplify #FFEECC
  4. Click on Effect >Amplify #FFDDAA
  5. Click on Effect >Amplify #FFCCAA
  6. Click on Effect >Amplify #FFCC99

I think 1, 2 and 3 look OK. 4 and 5 are too dark.

The "Key" template and a possible "Button" template

Press CTRL+A - the current key template
Click the Choose... button - bold with #EEEEEE
Click the Choose... button - plain with #EEEEEE

We could change the "key" template, then use the #DDDDDD background for buttons.

Please add your own suggestions.

  1. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  2. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  3. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  4. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  5. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  6. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  7. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  8. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  9. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  10. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  11. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  12. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  13. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  14. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  15. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  16. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  17. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button

I don't like the "cyans". 3, 5, 11 and 15 look OK to me.

It's hard to get "brown" without it being too dark or too orange.

  1. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  2. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button

Alternative colours for the "advice" div/template

This is the current advice div. The background is #FEFFBF
This is the the advice div with background #FFEEAA.
This is the the advice div with background #FFDDAA.
Does this look too much like an editornote?
Here's an editornote for comparison. The background is #FFEECC

Bill 07Apr12: Coming back to this after a rest, I kind of like #FFEECC for both the menu highlight and the advice div. If we did that then the editornote div colour would need to change. It doesn't have to be pretty, just not nausea-inducing :)

An alternative "editornote" div background #FFCCFF.
An alternative "editornote" div background #EECCFF.
An alternative "editornote" div background #DDCCFF.
An alternative "editornote" div background #CCCCFF.
An alternative "editornote" div background #EEDDFF.

I could live with #EEDDFF for editornotes.

Comparing spans and templates to make sure they are identical

This is the menu span.
The is the menu template with some text following it.
This is the key span.
This is the key template with some text following it.
This is the shortcut template, identical to the key template with some text following it.
Wiki uses 'shortcut', manual uses 'key'. This template allows transferring of text from the wiki to the manual without having to change every occurrence of the 'shortcut' template to the 'key' template.

This is the intro div. Both these effects depend on correctly detecting the "silences" between tracks and this depends on setting their parameters appropriately for your track. See this example of adjusting Silence Finder parameters in order to place labels correctly between the songs.
