I need your feedback for my add-on: How to call this new feature?

[Lukas]

I'm in the final stages of releasing Scoring Tools 2.0. One of the new commands automatically assigns different colors to tracks, making it easier to edit notes on those tracks and to distinguish the voices based on their colors.

So far, I've called the command "Apply Distinct Colors". However I'm not sure if this name is precise enough, maybe too technical, or even a bit off linguistically. That's why I'd like to ask all English native speakers:

Which of these names do you think best describes what the command does and would work best as a command name in Studio One? Or any better options...?

• Assign Unique Track Colors
• Colorize Tracks Uniquely
• Auto Colorize Tracks
• Separate Track Colors

For everyone interested, here's the manual page for the command (WIP):

Scoring Tools - apply-distinct-colors

I'd be grateful for any feedback. Have a great Sunday!

Maybe you can do something with "colour coding"?

If you want to be really precise then I suggest "Assign Unique Colors to Tracks" (but I'm picky in that way). Otherwise, "Assign Unique Track Colors" does the job.

Thank you. Yes, it's always about finding a compromise between technical precision, clarity for the user, and not being too long.

I favor

• Assign Unique Track Colors

This to descriptively accurate and to the point
