Alternative "Menu" span/template colours:

Please add you own suggestions.

2. Click on Effect >Amplify #FFEEAA
   
3. Click on Effect >Amplify #FFEECC
   
4. Click on Effect >Amplify #FFDDAA

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.

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.

• Gale 08Apr12: I think most of the "key" colours will be too dark for use on Keyboard Shortcut Reference. 17 is about the only one that looks acceptable thinking of use on that page. Have you tried a variant of the "Intro" div colour?

  I think the button colour may still be a little too strong for pages that use it a lot. On the other hand a *subtle* border might help mimic a button better and may allow us to do without the bold text. The Wiki is better here IMO, if a bit too forceful.

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 :)

• Gale 08Apr12: +1 to all that.

An alternative "editornote" div background #FFCCFF.

An alternative "editornote" div background #FFCCFF.

An alternative "editornote" div background #FFCCFF.

An alternative "editornote" div background #EECCFF.

An alternative "editornote" div background #EECCFF.

An alternative "editornote" div background #EECCFF.

An alternative "editornote" div background #DDCCFF.

An alternative "editornote" div background #DDCCFF.

An alternative "editornote" div background #DDCCFF.

An alternative "editornote" div background #CCCCFF.

An alternative "editornote" div background #CCCCFF.

An alternative "editornote" div background #CCCCFF.

An alternative "editornote" div background #EEDDFF.

An alternative "editornote" div background #EEDDFF.

An alternative "editornote" div background #EEDDFF.

I could live with #EEDDFF for editornotes.

• Gale 08Apr12: Expanding the divs with more text as they would be in real life I think rules out the first three as too "gaudy". I can live with either of the last two.

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 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.
