I like the new color picker and inlay markers.

P.S. I wonder why the square is labeled "Hg" ?
Is that a bug or I do not know some synonym for the square?

Thanks! i am using unicode letters to make those symbols. your font is showing something different for that letter than normal i'll have to change those to use images instead. thanks for the
'bug report'

I think the fix is simpler: the character you use for the square is U+32CC SQUARE HG, so the "Hg" rendering is the correct one, and the rest of us happen to be mis-rendering that symbol as a square :lol:

Maybe try one of these instead?

□
WHITE SQUARE
Unicode: U+25A1, UTF-8: E2 96 A1

▢
WHITE SQUARE WITH ROUNDED CORNERS
Unicode: U+25A2, UTF-8: E2 96 A2

I played around with a few different squares that and the other Utf symbols never really looked very good. I found a place with some better SVG graphic icons which render more consistently. I’ll get them in soon . I got off in the weeds in making an interface to creat your own fretboard tunings so it will be a few days before I get around to that . Thanks for the suggestions

the diagram gadget allows you to make your own custom tunings etc.. now
see the manual entry at the bottom of the manual and try it out if you are curious.
the UI is a little rough at the moment but it's works well enough functionally

Cool! Great idea. Many thanks.

I tried to set up this

When I click the 'Apply' button nothing appears to happen visually. I downloaded the diagram and took a look at the json, I think that is also unchanged.

Are my selections just too radical?

Seems very usable to me.

My only suggestion might be, if the toolkit includes a 'spinbox' control try that out as as an alternative to the dropdown? Just a guess but it might be a little neater for the octave number & maybe others? Hard to tell without trying it. Just a thought. Your tool, your choice. :D

And perhaps an editable title for custom tunings, but you maybe have that in mind already?

Thanks again. :D

fixed. sorry about that. it was a general bug nothing specific to your config. thanks for the report. the spinbox might be a good idea. i'll look into that. the dropdowns are a bit unwieldy.

note that you can type the note like 'G' once you select it and hit return instead of mousing to the note and clicking - much easier when you are doing twelve of them :) same for the other select dropdown buttons. i have requests to add a legend / title text area to the diagram so i'll probably do that. let me know if that fulfills your request for a title that you mentioned below

Thanks Mike.

Mission accomplished. Thank you. :)

Here's the svg of my weird tuning (with the show open strings option still on) converted to a .png (I just opened the .svg in my trusty IrfanView then used Save As).

Nice! i just changed the open strings to not show the stroke around the dot, which makes it look a bit cleaner i think
