In a large project with many sub containers and 60+ instruments I find TRACE PARAMETERS indespensible for locating stuff. To make TRACE PARAMETERS EVEN BETTER:
Could we have the following features added to TRACE PARAMETERS:
When Trace Parameters is ON, Make it so that closed Parent containers turn stripped green if one of the children inside is green.
Make it so that when clicking on a container, all of the active vectors for that container will highlight below and/or automatically open up and with all non-active vectors collapsiing or even better disapearing altogether. I would very much like to be able to make non-active instruments completely disapear (user selectable) within a particular container. My current project contains 60 some instruments and its just overwhelming to sift through all of that and ideally I think I'd probaby assign certain instrument / voicing groups to their own containers so-as to minimize the amount of clutter I need to look through when working on a particular idea / section.

I thought Cognitone is right now working on this feature : able/disable containers, but it is complicated to program according Cognitone.

Jan, I'm not writing the software so can't say how the current work will pan out, but I would think that these are two separate ideas. disabling a container will not hide instruments.
there us an option ( think its the m button but also in the menu) to minimise unused instruments. It collapses all instruments in a container that gave no figures/ parameters. They still show up but just their name one per line. your ideas would be pretty useful, but maybe minimise unused will help you out till something better comes along.
