And one of the reasons to do the color-thing is space. If I hide the text and only show it when the mouse hovers, I can fit a lot of mixing-nodes on screen. A horizontal (or vertical) bars needs more space to have a comparable resolution. I like the idea of hiding the mouse during value-changing moves. I already have these "sliders" react to the mouse-movement logarithmic. That also helps a lot when both coarse and fine changes should be possible with similar mouse- movement. And somehow I dream of a toolkit where you select a knob/slider/fader and it then reacts to the turn-knob you have on your desk. But given the variety in toolkits, I think this is a dream of the distant future unless that big knob sends out mouse-movement signals... Have fun, Arnold
