Nitpicks: The grid color behaves slightly differently in the editors than in the arrangement view. Looks like they don’t use the exact same timeline fill color. I also don’t like the horizontal note divisions too much.

It’s the same code that paints the vertical grid lines in all editors. The grid lines are however painted with translucency (~50% for bar lines) onto the background, so if you see a difference, then it should be because the background in the editors are different.

Beta12 is up. Some bugs are fixed, and the import/export buttons in the note map dialog are now implemented. Podium will look for a “Note Maps” subfolder in the setup folder. For this beta you can create this subfolder manually, or just save the files in the main Podium setup folder. I’ll add the creation of the “Note Maps” subfolder to the installer, along with a few default files for “GM Drum Kit”, “iMap Standard Drum Kit” and “iMap Extended Drum Kit”. Are there other common drum layouts that should be included?

Highlighted blackkeys works fine too. If I can reproduce them I’ll tell you how.

Please note: If a scale is active, then it will override the black key highlighting. Previously both scale and black keys were highlighted, which resulted in an unreadable mess.

Two bugs, selecting multiple events with far zoom doesn’t work fine:

I can’t see what the bug is here?

And, I barely use them having scales though, “highlight blackkeys” option doesn’t work.

The two options are working fine here. Please explain?

About “note map for track” doesn’t work in drums, i don’t know what’s your plan with this window, so I’ll wait a little before give more feedback. (because I see that drums roll view isn’t saved yet).

The new note map dialog will be available in the drum map editor eventually. I’m trying to figure out how it’s going to work in the piano roll before unifying the two editors. So I’m looking for comments on the note map changes to the piano roll editor, and not the drum map editor.

Beta10 is up. This beta has some changes to the piano roll editor.

There is a new menu button in the piano roll, with a “Customize Note Map” command for opening a dialog. The dialog can also be opened by right-clicking a key on the piano roll keyboard.

In this dialog you can enter a color and a name for each key. It’s also possible to enable/disable each note, similar to the drum map editor. Multiple notes can be selected in the listbox with the standard shift/ctrl click shortcuts. When you enter a name or select a color, this will be applied to all selected notes.

The names you enter for a note will be written on the piano roll keyboard, if zoomed in. For smaller zoom settings, I’m planning to implement a popup that will show the name of the key under the mouse cursor.

I’ve also modified the way that black keys and scale keys are highlighted.

Let me know what you think of this.
