Is there some way to NOT display the "Licensed to" at the bottom of the window?
I don't like having my name displayed where it doesn't need to be. It's a stupid pet peeve of mine. If there is a way to get rid of that I'd appreciate knowing how to do it. |

This is part of the very not intrusive copy protection of Jamstix, so one doesn't go ahead and give a copy to a friend who gives it out to a friend who doesn't share it with teh whole internet. I have no trouble with this and think it is a good way to stamp the ownership of the product. And why should it bother anyone? I use it in my home studio and before that I used it in our now bankrupt studio. Then it was registered to our studio and if our customers saw that it had our studios name in it, it was just a good thing. Now I have a license in my own name, since I use it at home.
I see no problem with this. I have agreed to the terms that this cannot be resold when I have purchased this product, so it is registered to me. |

As I said it's a stupid pet peeve and it does bother me enough that I have to ask about getting rid of it. |

Now it's quite annoying.
The descriptions that display when you hover the mouse over a function don't stay up long enough. They're displaced too quickly by that license notice
I don't know what I'm doing and I need to read some of those descriptions multiple times for them to sink in. It disrupts my thought process.
This widgety thing's function is to. . ."Hey! Guess what!? This program is licensed to you!!! YOU!!! Are licensed to use this program!!!"
Aaargghh! So I move the cursor and hover it back over the function I Am trying to understand. Let's read it again.
"This widgety thing's function is to jibber jabber." What the. . . hell does that mean!? I read it again. This widgety thing's function is to. . ."Hey! Guess what!? This program is licensed to you!!! YOU!!! Are licensed to use this program!!!"
Aaaarrghh! I get it!!! I just want to read the flags. Go away!
See why I don't like it? |

| I don't understand your problem. I've yet to find a single tool tip that I could not read and comprehend in the time the tool tip is visible. Print out a copy of the manual if it's that big of a problem. |

My problem is the tool tips are displaced too quickly by the "Licensed to" notice.
I Am a total freaking n00b at this. It would just be more helpful to me if the tooltips displayed a little longer as I learn the program.
Jamstix is a bit overwhelming after having only used EZDrummer to drag and drop patterns. |

Thanks. Hopefully I'll have most of it figured out by then but it should be helpful for other new users as well. |
