The insertion point now flashes subject to option

Thanks, I quite like the look of that, though the circle is for finding the cursor in a large screen full of zoomed out music. If I get round to the animated thing I'll give that a try.

I like the green circle that currently highlights the cursor position, but I think there's something slightly unintuitive about the interface as it currently stands.  The cursor has to show two things:  the insertion point for new notes that are inserted, and also, the "current note" which would have notes added to it when you AddNoteToChord, etc.  Currently this is shown by slightly offsetting the green horizontal rectangle cursor to the left to show that's the insertion spot, but this makes it a bit odd when you are editing chords/notes.
I'll attach a couple of pngs which if you switch back and forth between them in a picture viewer can give the impression of an animated cursor, together with the green rectangle showing the current staff position.  It looks to me like an intuitive interface.  Just putting this idea out there if it seems worthwhile.
