    As far as I understand, Encore 6 will (?) use something like an Overture core, keeping an Encore-like GUI. The core is something important, but is invisible to the eyes – except for the developer, and bugs.

    However, it has been said that the palettes would be replaced by a kind of dock, located at the left side of the screen. And if you look at Overture’s GUI, it resembles very much to a kind of dock, located at the left side of the screen.

    Let’s not forget that a GUI is designed at a certain moment in time, designed towards the equipment – the screen, primarily – available at that moment.
    This kind of left-side dock, if built around 1990, would either have unreadable characters, or not leave any room for the score. Today it’s quite different, the screens are so large that one needs to fill them (just kidding…)

      According to Amin’s post dated November 27, 2024, he said this:
      Funny thing is, the latest code that was sent to me, will not open some of the original Mac demo files.
      But, the good news is, I can open them with the new code. This is why I have chosen to use Overture code, instead of the old Encore code.
      The old Encore code has been driving me nuts, with all the bugs, so it is a very slow process.

      Which means, as you may have noticed, Encore 6 will use something like an Overture core, keeping an Encore-like GUI with the addition of new features.
      This will no longer create too much work for existing users who have pending projects.

      For the palettes to be replaced by a sort of dock, I would suggest that it also be detachable to better allow the user to organize their work environment like most modern software.

        TRIPLETS IN UNBEAMED NOTES

        In older versions of Encore, the number 3 above the triplets is placed on each note. It is not possible to use a single number 3 above the three eighth notes in a non-beamed note. This is only possible in beamed mode.
        I would suggest that this be revised as well.

          You can convert the number 3 above un-beamed notes, even with different values, to a number 3 in a broken beam using the “Triplets beam group” located in the toolbar.
