Tricorder: erase/diminish overlapping cables #29

Closed cosinekitty closed 7 months ago

cosinekitty commented 7 months ago

It's often the case that my patches have cables that pass over a Tricorder display area.

Trying to avoid overlaps can cause other unsatisfactory compromises in the patch layout.

I'm not sure whether this is possible in VCV Rack, but it would be nice if Tricorder had an option to either hide overlapping cables or make them more transparent.

One possible solution: see if I can make the display area render after the cables.

Now I feel the best way to assist viewers of my YouTube videos is to fade the cable opacity a little while into the first minute of a video. That way people can pause the video to see how the cables are connected, but then when the cables fade, they can focus on the Tricorder display. I'm not going to invest all this time into what feels like a weird feature.
