Improvements to Timing Tracks
« on: June 09, 2019, 07:13:04 PM »
The first thing I do when I create a new sequence is to create a LOT of timing tracks for all the different parts of the song... main verses, choruses, drum/guitar/sax solos, big cymbal crashes, main singer vs. backup singers, certain key lyrics...
I do this even before I plan too much into what props or effects I want to do for each part.  And making all the timing tracks makes it more shareable/usable for my friends who also have shows with completely different layouts than mine, and makes it easier to rearrange and change things in my own show.

I would like to see some improvements to timing track handling including:

* Rearranging the display order (move up/down).  Also, (if do-able), to intersperse them with the models, and not all at the top.
* Grouping (collapsible).
* Being able to set individual colors for tracks (not just the 5 in color manager).

Thanks again guys, keep up the excellent work!

Probably not going to get any of this except you can already change the colors with the Color Manager under Settings.  Your best bet is to use Views where you can only include the timing tracks you want in each view.
