In SLXEditor 2.8.8, the X/Y coordinates of a selected piece are displayed in the bottom right-hand frame in white on a grey background, which is not very visible. Is it possible to make these X/Y coordinates more visible?
In addition, when you zoom in to the maximum on a selected piece, X/Y almost completely disappears and becomes very difficult to read. Can X/Y be placed elsewhere so that its visibility is not affected when zoomed in? I can see that this is not the case in Level Arranger Window: X/Y is stable and fully visible in the bottom right-hand frame, whatever the zoom level.

I've increased the size of the font to 12pt, let's give it a try in the next update and see if we like it.

This has now been patched in commit 7e2775a.

However, one issue still remains. In the Level Arranger, it takes an extra input for the UI to completely update when the scrollbars become visible. So, for instance, when zooming in, the X/Y coordinates will be hidden behind the scrollbars when they first appear. Moving the scrollbars, zooming in or even just clicking the window itself fixes this immediately, but I haven't yet found a way to get the UI to update as and when the scrollbars become visible.

For now though, the X/Y coordinates are now fully visible at all times in the standard view, and 99% of the time in the Level Arranger view, with the 1% being the moment that the scrollbars become visible. I'll keep this topic open until I find a fix for this.
