| Summary | 0005102: White shading on playhead makes it difficult to place accurately on waveform when editing | ||||
| Description | The white shading on both sides of the playhead lightens the waveform enough to make it difficult to place the playhead accurately when using it as the edit point. The plain red line used in A2 makes this a lot easier. It would be nice to be able to turn the shading off (if not get rid of it, but I realise I'm probably in the minority in preferring plain graphics). | ||||

hallo, i am agreed with you at this point. also i do not get the point what the shading of the playhead should be good for. but indeed, the option to turn the shading off/on would be very good and everyone’s taste would be satisfied. the best would be if this option would work as a system adjustment and not as per session. cheers, doc |

Agreed, but I would say just get rid of it, don't make it an option. I don't see what it is trying to achieve. |

I suspect a plain red line would need less processing power too, which might help to smooth out the playhead movement. |
|
|
I've disabled the playhead shading on my own system by editing line 41 in gtk2_ardour/editor_cursors.cc, which sets shade.property_width_pixels()=7; Changing this to shade.property_width_pixels()=0; gets rid of the shading. It also cures the playhead flicker on my systems. |

Shade removed in SVN 13192. |
