Default Re: Decrease velocity contrast works odd

Howdy guys,

The current error message implementation is this:

1. If Composer is going to ask a question or give an instruction, then there is a pop up box when the user does the 'wrong' thing. An example is clicking on the Text tab, then Special Symbols. The mode automatically switches to "Add" mode and is ready for the user to add a symbol somewhere in the score. However, if the user clicks on the "Special Symbol" button in the tool palette thinking that they need to click that first, an "information" message comes up, rather than a simple error message. These information messages typically have an "Ok" button to click them away when you're done reading.

2. If it is a 'simple' error message, the error message comes up in the lower left Status Bar, and the background is red for a few seconds, then the red fades away but the error message remains until the user either clicks in the score or performs some edit. An example here is trying to add a note in the score where a note already exists (eg. trying to add a middle C in the top staff in the same time position where a middle C is already in the staff.)

ttfn,
Sherry
