Radium 5.9.85 released

Post by kjetil »

This release has various improvements, mostly for the user interface, and some bug fixes. It's another preparation for the upcoming release of Radium 6.0.


The most notable change this time is the new editor track interface:

The old buttons to enable volume and panning sliders are now replaced with checkboxes in the popup menus, and the sliders themselves are only visible when enabled. In addition, audio meters are shown in the track headers as well.


Another improvement to the editor is to adjust font size and so forth of the global track headers:

Although this is strictly superficial, it does make Radium look more professional.


Another interface improvement is to group colors in the colors preferences:

This should make it much easier to find the right color to adjust since the number of colors have grown enormously in recent years. (Originally there were only 8 colors).

    popup menu.
  • Scripting: Update S7 scheme interpreter.
