jackdaniel: Do you remember some 8 months ago when you showed me how to create a text style from a truetype font file? I needed it in order to use an existing music font file for Clovetree, a.k.a. Gsharp version 2. Well, at the time, I couldn't make it work, but I am happy to report that it now works.

In Gsharp version 1, I carefully aligned vertical and horizontal lines at pixel boundaries. I may have to give that up in Clovetree for glyphs that I take from an existing font.

But on my 4K monitor, I can't tell that such lines have blurry edges anyway, so I may just rely on improved monitor technology, rather than working too hard on this issue.

Ah, maybe not. I see that this font has noteheads without stems, so I can draw the stems myself.

we probably should add history after 2001 to the "development history" chapter in "auxiliary material" part of our manual

we could, but I'd rather want someone review it first (i.e to see if there are no lingering obsolete parts)

also "Using views' Part of the usedr manual is written in the most confusing manner I could imagine
