I am about to make some changes to the Aeolus stoplist UI , and am just
wondering how this will impact the rest of the stafftext UI.

1. One of the problems with the Stafftext.ui layout as it is is that it is
dynamic.
Consequently every time I load it into QT Designer on my system it inflates
the width to 1134
I don't really see the need for a dynamic layout here, so I am proposing to
make the Aeolus Stoplist a fixed size of around 800 x 600 with stop buttons
90 x 50 - the current dynamic buttons don't look good IMO due to the
variation in size depending on the width of the button text.

2. In most real organs stop knobs are not normally colour coded, however the
text on non speaking stops is often coloured red instead of black. I am
therefore proposing to make all the stop buttons the same background colour
and colour the text red for couplers and green for tremulants.

One of my concerns was that it was not easy to see which stops were
selected, but Nicolas's tweaks to the UI in the latest release have
addressed that.

If you have any objections to this, please say now!

Michael
