these are layouts in progress, and will change as the related enachements will be implemented:
Do we really need all that resolution stuff? Is something like this enough: Minimalistic Advanced Tracker
This is a working progress stage where we are trying to find the better solutions for present bzr2 aesthetically and functionally as better as possibile. It Isnt something we "need" but having this 8 templates (2 configurations per 4 different resolutions) aims to find the best windows arrangement. Isnt only a matter of pixel quantity: there are different aspect ratios that led to a substantially different placement. I will bring u these, then we can value if they represent a good solution or not. Maybe ure right and it is too much, but on my laptop with 1920x1080 external monitor and 1280x720 internal display everyday makes me difficult to arrange windows for having everything i want without sacrifying nothing
new bundled layouts here: layouts.zip
i decided to avoid specific layouts for non tracker/exotic playback since the intent is trying to reuse its specific windows also with common mp3s playback (sooner or later) or having a strategy to hide/resize them when not needed
uhd 4k (2160p) layout is missing since i don't have a monitor capable of it, but I suppose the other three should fit (almost) perfectly
added new minimal layouts (like winamp) layouts.zip
entries to be placed as in _Window -> Layouts :
1280x720 (mp3s) 1280x720 (trackers) 1366x768 (mp3s) 1366x768 (trackers) 1920x1080 (mp3s) 1920x1080 (trackers) 3440x1440 (mp3s) 3440x1440 (trackers)
'trackers' is intended to be used with exoctic file formats (like mod, xm, ahx, sid, mid, cust, etc) 'mp3s' is intended to be used with audio 'stream' file formats (like mp3, ogg, flac, wav, mp4, etc) (maybe a better concise terms should be used)
they differ as 'mp3s' arrangements don't have following windows: tracker view, samples, instruments
these layouts imply:
not too big visualizer window:
369
single channel waveform for non tracker playback:
103
save/optimize layout space as much as possible:
372
374
511
514
save further space and getting rid of unneeded tracklist bottom scroll bar as much as possible:
376
469
decent shrink for tracker view window:
262
213
better adaptive channels window:
510
for the first bzr2 start (when there is not settings.ini yet) one of these tracker layouts should be used by default (maybe detecting current user resolution) for having a good user's first impression/impact. also they shouldn't be editable, so for any reason the user will have the possibility to restore them
