Hi, just demoing RC and already have question/feature request: Those tabs at the top of the screen are pretty small & uninspiring and even worse are the skinny weak fonts on those tabs, and to top it all off there seems to be some silly shading on them, and frankly this stuff alone will probably prevent me from buying. And I would like to buy, actually.

The concept of tabs is very efficient, SONAR's GUI utilizes tabs and it is very cool...but I would like these tabs to be bigger, clearer, with much better fonts and considerable colour customization. Everything should just look sharper!

Attila, have other users commented on any of this? Do you have any plans to improve this? What if I said please! Pretty please? And maybe you could have the application adhere more to the standard Window's layout? I think that would go a long way to improving Rapid Composer!

I've always asked Attila to adhere to the standard Windows menu layout-- such as File / Edit / View / Tools / Help... (as in Firefox above).... I don't think he has plans to make it more like that. But, version 3 looks a lot better and easier to use... it's very similar, but it does look a lot better.

Thanks!

Thanks for that...sounds like you have tried the version 3 beta? It would be nice if Attlila would answer my question about possibly improving those tabs.

Hi Grizzellda,

the tabs look different on version 3, and yes, I agree, I also did not like the old tabs.

Please note that the UI is very flexible, you can set up all the colors and button shapes in the UI, saving and loading a theme is possible. I have plans to add some font scaling options for users with very high resolution monitors.
I attached a screenshot about the tabs in version 3:

Thank you for your comments!

Ah...hey now that looks quite nice! Thank you for the screenshot, it is a big step up. I'm delighted that you you are improving the interface, please keep tweaking it. And more font options are always welcome by me!

Rapid Composer is a very nice program and I will continue to explore it.
