Note overlapping in some layers and components while in-game.

Hello, I've posted this on Facebook before but I will post the issue here as well including the images concerned.

In DanceDanceRevolution, it's possible to prioritise the notes on top before the combo and the judgement through the eAmuse's Website, and vice versa. The behaviour is different in Simply Love as shown here.

I would like to ask if there will be a similar implementation with Simply Love as well since there are notes overlapping when accuracy and other components are shown? It would be great if this setting is per-profile since the behaviour works with respect to DDR's eAmuse profile preference as well.

The issue here is once the notes get past through the targets (top, for the reverse), the notes will overlap. The same goes with standard scrolling, overlapping the accuracy shown while the notes are incoming. There should be an option to allow the notes to overlap with the heads-up display for accuracy, life bar and song title bar.

In general we don't strive for full feature parity with DDR (SL is an ITG theme after all) and I think that making the z-index configurable makes things more complicated than necessary. However I'm leaving this issue open as a reminder to re-think the ordering of elements, especially those:

• header/notes: For reverse it could make sense to have the header in the foreground, but when playing without reverse the header has to be in the background, otherwise it's impossible to see notes that went past the receptors. Handling this differently depending on the mods seleced might be complicated though, because it can differ per player.
• notes/measure counter: I've never heard anyone complain about it, but maybe it would make sense to put the measure counter in the foreground to make it better readable.
