Decrease velocity contrast works odd

[Mark W]

Hello NotationUser and Sherry,

Sherry, please help me remember, as it has been a long time since I remember having worked on this UI for error reporting. Does Composer sometimes show the error flashing the the status bar to get the user's attention? Or show it in red?

If that error reporting enhancement is already implemented in the released Composer (rather than in an interval version we've been working on), this please show me an example where the enhanced error is reported.

NotationUser, I agree that error messages in the status bar sometimes are noticeable. But what I really want to avoid is error message boxes always popping up that the user must dismiss, when the error is very minor, like "you can't move this note up a pitch because it would collide with another pitch." Imagine how annoyed you'd be having to dismiss that message box. If the note's pitch can't be raised, you'll wonder why, and if you wonder why, you'll soon learn to glance down at the status bar.

If there is a better way of informing the user about "can't do", then I'm not aware of it, and would be open to implementing a better UI for minor error reporting.

Cheers
