RC1 bug reports

layer lock is an empty box until you click on it, there is no indication what the box will do. looks idential to the layer-enable box but has a very different meaning.

mask (global) seems to be totally broken. selecting a media, it doesn't show up in the output or preview. works on 2.9

mask (global) has "test" and "test2" entries in the blend mode [since 2.9]
mask (global) says "ink" should say "blend mode" [since 2.9]
mask (global) the "alpha" and "speed" dials are basically invisible because of the new color scheme
bpm (master) says "sinusoid" should say "smooth" like BPM (layer) and everywhere else
slide show (layer) fading knob invisible due to color scheme
in general, the builtin modules are hard to read because of the new color scheme (some parts the contrast is really low, some parts contrast is really high)

feature request
mask global should have modes for "multiply" (use case: you have a mask expressed as white-on-black shape) and a "multiply alpha channel but ignore rgb channels" (use case: file or video with mask expressed as alpha channel, guarantees you don't get weird color effects)

opinion:
I miss the orange color, but maybe I'll get used to it

(at) Micromodul8 gives this error message *sometimes* when deleting layers:

EDIT:

Seems to be doing this *once* every time I start Modul8 > Create a new layer > Duplicate the layer > Delete the duplicate.

After this duplicates can be made and deleted without the error message.

Here's a video of the behaviour: https://i.imgur.com/jg7fefR.mp4

I realy need the orange colour back! Need to see very fast what is on or off during the mixing process!
I have the problem with the Transformer function, after saving and reload a project file the transformer button is in off position!
How can i change the the default size in Stage Setup to make quick change?

The new colours make it hard to see what going on
The colours need correcting or a modul so
users can choose.

Also and probably more notably the application freezes on 1st start up and needs to be forced to quit, from then on it's fine.
Every new version of 3.0 beta has been the same.

I note mjpeg compressed movies now loop seemlessly (they would drop a frame before)

The new version picked up my thunderbolt BM ultra studio 3d (not checked with source yet)

DMX data comes out one frame late.

I'm using the garagecube DMX box. If I do:
modul8.sendDMX(0, 1, 10)
then later modul8.sendDMX(0, 1, 255) it sends 10
then later modul8.sendDMX(0, 1, 70) it sends 255
etc

I can see this in my code, and confirmed in the "DMX 8 Channels" modules. It seems to work when I drag faders, but clicking around it becomes obvious that the previous fader value is the one .

I only have the garagecube DMX box, so I can't test on 2.9 to compare.
