  1. ! title TODO list for the Non-sequencer
  2. --
  3. ; General
  4. * allow deletion and renumbering of individual patterns and phrases.
  5. * dirty the song more often than just on note manipulation. Pattern
  6. names, playlist chances, viewport size adjustments--all need to
  7. dirty the song.
  8. * add mode for disconnected operation. This is especially important
  9. for the situation where there is a timebase master when Non is
  10. started that exits before Non is closed, resulting in a lack of BBT
  11. information on the transport and a subsequent crash.
  12. * add option to create new instrument defintion.
  13. * per phrase tempo setting? Perhaps a percentage of global tempo?
  14. * add channel field to event list widget (but channel bits in pattern
  15. event lists are currently meaningless.)
  16. * add uneditable "other" tab to event list widget.
  17. * new Phrase playback mode. In this mode, a single phrase is looped,
  18. and the next phrase to be looped can be queued. This is similar the
  19. the playlist, but not linear from bar 1.
  20. * live performance record. Does this have to be internal to Non? Is
  21. there no jack MIDI capable recorder that could be connected to all
  22. non ports? How would ports be handled anyway? As separate tracks in
  23. an SMF-1 file, perhaps?
  24. * add global setting for composer name/copyright to be included in
  25. song files.
  26. * !!! now that we're not using stupid-ass STL list container for the
  27. event lists we can perhaps keep a pointer to the next event in the
  28. playback thread, which would eliminate much overhead. This might
  29. also require keeping a "dirtied" bit in the grid to let the
  30. playback thread know that the UI thread has changed the list
  31. between process calls (also, what about transport relocations?)
  32. * guess key signature of imports?
  33. * figure out how to handle SysEx events with Jack MIDI (packetize them?)
  34. * add chords to scale list... a pattern using the scale of a chord
  35. would contain a melody within that chord.
  36. ; Canvas
  37. * custom scrollbar widget (dots)
  38. * add vertical scrollbar widget to canvas.
  39. * update beat/measure line drawing when BPB changes.
  40. * update phrase height when number of patterns changes... (good use
  41. for a signal?)
  42. * phrases need a way to show/hide relevant patterns. The whole
  43. "mapping" system is a total mess. How about only showing rows
  44. containing events? How would one add a pattern in this system? A
  45. button that adds an event for the given pattern?
  46. * split canvas into separate widgets (ruler, names, canvas)?
