Design question (first impressions)
on: April 21, 2024, 05:33:07 AM
I've decided to make a chord dictionary and I'm working on the design. I'd like to get some feedback. Without any explanation of the attached graphic, what do you guess the different markings/colours denote?

This (for a chord dictionary) to me, the colors suggests a tritone (the scariest interval:) .  If the dot on C suggests a key signature, perhaps the colors represent a G7 (though missing a couple of telling notes).

If inverted, going from F up to B, then to the dot ,C (the resolution), we have the melody that starts 'Maria' - Bernstein.

Mostly, this is a head scratcher, and I am uncertain of your intention.

Not exactly. Perhaps my example was a little ambiguous seeing as how it wasn't actually a chord. Let's try this one of a C Major chord.

And one with the accompanying notation should help to clarify my intention (I hope  :-\ )
