Well, I guess the most obvious alternative is to just place the volume
slider above the buttons, but again this still adds space. One solution
would be to shrink the instrument image so that the overall space is
identical to the space taken up before the volume slider was included,
but I imagine that's not an ideal solution :S

Thanks for the patch Tom. This is really well done, and I think it serves a good purpose because currently the volume control is not as discoverable as it could be.
However right now the volume slider is underneath the buttons, which looks a little weird. Previously the buttons were at the bottom and they formed a nice straight line along the bottom of the instrument header. Also it makes the instrument lanes a little bigger; bigger than the events are. This is not as big a problem, we can certainly resize the height of the events if we need to.
I want everyone to take a look at the screenshot:

Any suggestions for where else we could put it?
(I think there was previously a bug for having a recording monitor vertically against the right side of the header, but a volume slider requires more width and height than that).

Coded against SVN Revision 1519
Updated version of the instrument volume slider patch. The volume slider is now part of the ControlsBox. When creating the controls box, you should add a 'includeVolumeSlider=True' to the parameters. For example, the code used in InstrumentViewer.py is:
self.controlsBox =
ControlsBox.ControlsBox(project,mainview,instrument,includeEffects=True,includeVolumeSlider=True)
This means the volume slider is an optional control (for example, the mixer strip omits the volume slider for obvious reasons).
Peace,
Tom
