+Slotted editors +

+Currently, MusE has the pianoroll editor, drum editor, score editor, +then the controller editor which is inside the pianoroll/drum editor. +All these editors have a very similar concept: the "time axis" is +vertical and (almost) linear, they handle parts, and events are +manipulated similarly. + +

+A unified editor shall be created which allows you to combine different +kinds of editors in one window, properly aligned against each other. +These "different kinds of editors" shall be handled as "slots"; one +unified editor window consists of: + +

A menu bar, containing stuff suitable for the complete window, + which might include window name, MDI-ness etc. +
A toolbar which contains controls suitable for every single slot. +
A container with one or more slots; the slots can be scrolled in + y-direction if there are multipe slots. +
A time-scrollbar with zoom +

+ +

+Each slot contains the following: + +

A menu button, button box or control panel for setting up this + particular slot. This could contain "note head colors", "show + a transposing instrument" etc for score edit slots, "event + rectangle color", "grid size" and "snap to grid" for pianoroll/ + drum editors. +
The actual canvas +
A y-direction scroll bar, possibly with zoom control (for + pianoroll editor) +

+ +

+The main window does not show its scroll bar if there is only one slot, +because the slot's scrollbar is sufficient then. + +

+Slots can be added, destroyed, moved around, maybe even merged (if the +slot types allow it); basically, you can compare them with the staves +in the score editor. + +

+The slots shall align against each other, that is, if a score editor +slot displays a key change with lots of accidentials, then all other +slots shall either also display the key change (if they're score slots) +or display a gap. Events which happen at the same time shall be at the +same x-coordinate, regardless which slot they are. + +
