The main window still needs to be redesigned.

Feedback is welcome - if you have any suggestions now, I might still be able to take them into account.

This is harder then i think.
I still think this can be made in tabs ..

Curently the bigest window is rds section .. status overview take much from it and can be in separate tab.
Pre-Emphasis FM Stereo Encoder and pilot/rds/fm volume/keep composite mpx ..can be again in separate tab .. etc..
Calibration window is big too and with easy can be done smaller (shorter sliders. step2 in line of step3 at first place .. etc)

Great job Hans !!!, my comments are as follows:

1- Would it be possible to allow the saved "customized" presets appear in the preset window list?
2- It would be more convenient for the users to see the Graphic Equalizer graduated in decibel values instead of
numbers.
3- I think you need to make the Stereo Tool Logo appears in the main window with a bigger name and icon, at the same time
and if it is possible, you may need a touch of decoration in the main window as to make it more attractive to users.

Thanks and regards,

Abdul

Can you say why this is harder?

If I use tabs instead, it won't be possible anymore to open several windows simultaneously. Just for clarity, you don't have to open them all at the same time, basically you just open one window and configure it, then you open the next etc - which isn't that different from using tabs. But if you want to open multiple windows simultaneously, it's possible this way.

Like I said, the main window is NOT yet finished, and it will be made far more clear (the Configure buttons for example will all be put in more logical places.)

What do you mean by the "Calibration window"? All the new windows are much smaller than the current Stereo Tool window...

1. Already on my todo list! Don't know how easy it will be but I'm definitely going to do something like that.
2. I think I'm going to add a general setting somewhere where you can choose between dB or absolute values. Maybe not in the first version, but it's also already on my todo list...
3. Main window isn't finished yet, and will be made much more slick. And if I find some space I'll add a logo too :-)

How are the highs now? And do you mean that you would still want more bass, or is it ok as it is now?

It's not going to be this small, this is only a part of it... I'll try to make it as small as possible, but it will probably get about the same size as the current (small) main window.
