It's called Character Viewer on Mac. Look for "Using emojis and symbols on Mac" in the help.Dugrok wrote: ↑Tue Oct 25, 2022 9:28 pmInteresting. I can't seem to find this on Mac though, and it's not immediately obvious how I would do this when I right click the locator.The Rabbits wrote: ↑Wed Oct 19, 2022 5:00 amYou can use any emoticon in Locator names (and elsewhere) .
Right-click to rename the Locator then hit Win+. (Windows key and period) to open the icon list. Not sure how this works on Mac.
You've got coloured shapes and all the rest. You can mix icons and text or whatever you want. The same thing works for Collections, folders you can rename and presets, files, clips, samples,...
This being said, for those who stumble upon this thread, I will say that I have found a workaround for the time being which might work just as well. I just create a new empty midi track at the top of my project, and insert colour-coded empty midi clips to mark off sections of the project visually. It's been working pretty well.
