In the end, it was all worth it. .. Probably..

-=-=-

Yesterday's JMTrackr work went like so..

1. Why on earth is it not working on the iPad? I *think* it might be because the canvas isn't fullscreen.
Right.. I need to rewrite the whole thing to make it fullscreen..

2. Spend about 2 hours rewriting the GUI, rejigging the whole site.

3. Test it on iPad. ... Still not working?!!

4. Debug using Safari.

5. Realise there's a rogue undeclared variable name, which is breaking the touch functions.

6. Realise all of the day's work was absolutely worthless, if only I'd've bothered to test it earlier, and realised the fix was as simple as adding "var zd;" to the top of the script.

7. Never mind. Did all that work, already, might as well carry on with the new version.



And so the new version of JMTrackr now exists, and works "roughly" the same way it did before.
The buttons now light up when the mod is playing.
The patterns are slightly easier to switch between.
The Drum pattern editing switches to a set of drums instead of a piano roll.
And there's even a new Tempo option up at the top... ... Although the music plays using Mod Speed 5, so the tempo isn't exactly BPM. I need to do some maths and figure out exactly what the BPM is, in that scenario!!

But it's all working on iPad, now, too, which was pretty much my intended use for this tool. ..So, good job that at least works!
