Waveform overview does not support pixmaps

[Hendrik]

Please add support for custom hot cue marker/pixmaps in the overview like the waveform solution below.
The reason is when i define custom hot cue marker for the waveform, i don't see any differences in the overview. Only normal hot cues.

I think this is a first step to fixing similar bugs/wishes.

<Mark>
     <Control>hotcue_X_position</Control>
        <Pixmap>custom_marker.png</Pixmap>
     <Text>HOTCUE X</Text>
 <Align>Y</Align>
 <Color>#</Color>
 <TextColor>#</TextColor>
</Mark>

Edit: Oh sorry, colored hot cue marker in the overview are possible.
I edit the topic to "support pixmaps in the overview".

How do you imagine that Mixxx would enable users to set pixmaps for individual hotcues? IMO it seems like this would clutter the GUI and not add much more functional value than colored markers. What do you want to do with pixmap markers?

Thank you for your comment.

Only skin developers could set individual pixmaps for the marker. Nothing more.
The designer is free to use it or not. Like the solution for the waveform.

The reason why: I wanted to set individual pixmaps as visual helpers.
Most controllers have 4 or 8 hot cue buttons only.
The rest can be used as flags to remind yourself of the critical places in a track.
This is the functional value.

My upcoming skin has optional:
1 cue point marker
8 hot cue marker
6 fade-in marker
6 fade-out marker
8 (section) begin marker
8 (section) end marker

Now, i see colored bars only, without their meaning. Bad for beginners.
