Rusty(and All.)
the reasons i dont get into very deep detail re any new bb gui are..

1..the list of what i would like changed re gui would be very VERY extensive if i got down to the level of every menu and toolbar and dialog entry.... eg just on one dialog like audio drivers it would be oodles of typing and my eyes get tired frankly.

2..pg staff are very intelligent talented people.
i'm sure they are very very well aware of different gui issues.
so i assume they have concerns also about various gui aspects as they would use bb themselves.

3..we all know what the root problem is...viz..
pg over the years have tried obviously to keep lots of different users happy re user feature demands.
its a prob every dev faces.

you want specifics ?? re you said...
'give a clear suggestion for a feature or improvement'...

just one example i would like redesign of the drivers dialogs focused on new users and resolutions of driver installation problems.
and ease of prob diagnose and reporting.
reason being that in any music app most new users have often set up problems as weve seen on these forums over the years.
and its often not a pg problem but say a win setting.

with my new audio interface install awhile back i didnt have to do one bb driver tweak. bb ran first time....no probs.
but many new users arent techs and dont often realise the importance of windows and other settings etc etc. ie there are various pitfalls for a new user to music production. anything gui wise re problem solving if tech issues occurs would be of benefit imho. includeing helping pg tech support diagnose issues.

imho its no good haveing a beautifull eye candy new bb gui if the new user is stuck at the sound interface installation phase before useing the new gui whatever.
pg isnt alone in this...often users get problems with the driver and other settings in any music app.
in summary anything gui design wise that would help rapid problem diagnosis so a new user isnt frustrated would be of benefit imho.

obviously Rusty you and i dont agree on some things from our exchanges over time. but thats life it would be a boring world if we all agreed.
maybe you think this post is too lacking in some detail...
dunno...but i do the best i can and thats all i can do.
we are all different.

happiness.
