It looks so nice on the Mac...! ;o)

It's a pity it looks way less 21th Century here on Hardy... fyi I have attached the screenshot.

I have also mocked up a version with my ideas (which are based on my rather limited knowledge of Pd). Please take a look at it.
- Afaik the IN/OUT meters are for the DSP so I would group them with the DSP switch.
- I would omit the IN/OUT meter switch. Can we? Or is this a CPU-hog?
- I would suggest having some kind of MIDI IN/OUT LEDs... which could also serve as switches in case you want to suspend MIDI reception or transmission. In my graphics they are just simple switches but I'm not sure it is possible to 'blink' those switches. If not, then we could have separate switches and LEDs.
- A LOAD meter. Is this a CPU hog? If not, can we have it on the Pd window? (It is quite hidden under the Media menu, imho also because Media is a quite fuzzy name.)
- Console hide, clear. Let's try to have it somewhere right above the console!

Sorry the mockup is not very well worked out - I just wanted to bring up these quick ideas... ;o)

There is a small collection of some screenshots of the new GUI in action.  Add anything you think is worth documenting:

Looking at things from a more basic level, you can come up with a more direct solution... It may sound small in theory, but it in practice, it can change entire economies.     - Amy Smith
