[Bug 1064050] [NEW] Make blank to desktop more obvious

 

Public bug reported:

A user would like to "Blank to Desktop."  However, when selecting this
button, even though the desktop is projected, the Live window shows no
indication of this.  If a song is being projected live at the time that
you select "Blank to Desktop," the chorus is still displayed in Live
window even though the desktop is projected as desired.

This can cause confusion to the operator if the computer is not located
so that he has a clear view of the screen on the wall; the only
indicator that he has is a slight change in the button appearance that
is not too helpful.

Either the desktop needs to be displayed in the Live window when "Blank
to Desktop" is enabled, or a red diagonal line should be drawn through
the Live window.  This would be a great help!
