It's one of my specialties as well. So I'm really glad you are
looking into all this.
Thanks for the encouragement, Ted. I took a quick glance at adding a set
of referencing ViewElements to the Event class and while I was afraid
that would require patching in lots of places it might actually be much
simpler. Maybe just in the base ViewElement constructor, but even if not
there's only NotationElement and MatrixElement that derive from it. I'll
look further, and at other/alternate approaches.
Note that I never planned on doing this kind of deep surgery on the RG
code. I came here to fix one bug and implement one feature, yet in
doing so I keep falling deeper and deeper down the rabbit hole.
That's exactly how I ended up here.
Now you're scaring me. ;) I've read your bio on the "authors" page.
Coming up on 12 years now, right? So what you're saying is that
Rosegarden is a gothic horror that lures unsuspecting coders into an
infinite purgatory of improving a Frankenstein monster that will never
be truly finished? ;)
And I obviously understand that there's a good chance anything I do
(including the merge requests I've already submitted) will end up
living forever only in my own repository fork.
Yeah, sorry about that. I will do my best to bring your changes in,
but it is going to take some time. There is a lot going on these days.
Not a problem. I just wanted to know that my code will eventually be
reviewed for possible inclusion. If it wasn't going to be I could just
go back to simpler hacking on my own. (When they're only going to affect
me personally I'm much more nonchalant about potential bugs.)
When you do get around to it, lets coordinate and I can try to refactor
the commits into some kind of logical linear progression of merges. I'll
try to write with that in mind, but the one good thing is that I'll be
running the build from the head of my "all changes combined" branch and
hopefully will catch and fix the inevitable bugs there.
