Timer panel — three redesigns

Three ways to shape the timer dropdown, all in the shipped instrument-console faceplate language + (same tokens, lamps, console keys, engraved labels, and tabular readouts as the net / bt / sound panels). + Each is a working prototype over one shared engine that mirrors wtimer + the PanelModel: add / cancel / pause / + resume, promote to the bar slot, per-type presets (add and delete chips), freeform entry with the same validation, + stopwatch lap + stop-and-save, the soonest-fire queue sort, the 10-item cap, and a real completion + notify on fire. + Try each: add a timer, watch one count down and fire, promote a row, pause a stopwatch, delete a preset chip.

A Rack unit — the faithful list

The closest sibling to the net / audio panels: a vertical stack you scan top-down. Header with the live + count and CLEAR ALL; one output-well row per item, soonest-firing on top; each row carries a lamp, glyph, label, + the big countdown, and inline pause / promote / cancel keys. Create strip lives at the bottom — pick a type, tap a preset + or type a duration, name it, ADD. Safest port of what already shipped.

B Transport deck — one hero, a track list

A cassette-transport shape. The primary item (the one in the bar glyph slot) gets a hero readout with a + progress ring and chunky transport keys; everything else is a compact track list underneath. Click a track to promote it into + the hero seat; the ‹ › keys cycle the primary. Puts the timer you care about front-and-centre, the rest one glance away.

C Channel-strip board — a mixing desk of timers

The mixing-console metaphor: every item is a vertical channel strip on a board, its fader draining from the top + as time runs out (a stopwatch fills instead, tinted slate). Read all your timers at once like meters on a desk. Click a strip + header to promote it; the trailing ＋ NEW strip is the create surface. The most spatial, most stereo of the three.
