Proposed improvements to the status bar
When an xrun is generated it is annoying that it stays red, as the perception is created that there are still xrun errors, even though this is not the case. I think the friends at kxstudio have done a great job on their status bar for Carla (and others). Making Qtractor work in an equivalent way would be a great idea.
1_ If you want to mark the warning as red, I think it's fine, but it should not stay red, but only light up for a second. 2_ Indicate next to the xrun the current xrun number. 3_ Click on the xrun to reset the number to 0. 4_ Include a percentage of CPU consumption in the bar.
the xrun indicator is just informative only, in fact it was due an old request to warn you if a recording is "tainted"--the xrun indicator gets reset when you restart transport/playback: that's its only scope and purpose.
It is only a proposal.
Adding the CPU consumption display would be appreciated by everyone. Many of us have low-resource computers, and this info helps us to optimise our workflow as we go along.
This along with the other points I indicate I leave them to your free consideration.
Thanks for everything
