IN PROGRESS: Tabs
    - should the save and load buttons always be present on all tabs?
    IN PROGRESS: Timer Tab
        - The input interface
        IN PROGRESS: Navigation bar
            done: Update OSI order: for the TIMER
                done: buttons or...
                    > can sort by the following:    
                        - percent screen time: ascending and decending
                        - most or least recently on screen 
                        - alphabetically: ascending and decending
                cancled: drag and drop OSIs?
                    - this would be better than buttons?
                    > i don't think the manual sorting while timing is nesseary
                    > this feature has been moved to the exporter
            done: Toggle OSI names from aligned-left to aligned-right
            done: live sorting buttons
            done: need to make event markers slide over when they are too close to the end of the timeline display
            TODO: consolodate sort button types into one button 
                - have the most recently used sort button highlighted
                - have one button for ascending and desedning sort that toggles visually to show you how it's sorting
            done: toggle OSI event visability
            TODO: control the activel OSTP in the Timer
            TODO: sort by items, events, status?
                - need to think about this some more
        TODO: events need to be internally tagged with ids
            - track exported events by id then reference the name 
            - so you can add an event quickly, then go back and change the name of that event
        TODO: when you hover over an OSI it shows what "time" the cursor is additonal
        TODO: add OSI item toggle?
            - this will likely be really similar to "on screen time" vs "in sceen time"
            - but controlled with similar things to the event?
            - should you be able to hide this?
        TODO: on screen time and in scene time
            - simultanious info that let's you track when someone is specificly on screen or in the scene
            - probably need to integrate a player into the OST
            - get to frame level accuracy for on screen (because someone will ask for it)
            - do the same for in scene
        done: Event only timelines?
            - Just track when something specific happens?
            - i.e. the force was used at this point in the film?
            > because of the way Events are tracked you can just have an OSI and level the visibility off
                and just uses the events
            > Make a event specific OSI that can literally only track events? ...
        done: hover over event markers and see at what time the event happened and what it was

    IN PROGRESS: Exporter Tab
        - The export interface
        TODO: you can load several different OSTPs at the same time and merge
            - This is primarily an Export feature
            - If you load multiple OSTPs at once when in the Timer, need to add a section in the NavBar that let's you control only one at a time
        TODO: Single character on screen plot
            - load multiple OSTPs the chose one character from all of them to compare screen time
        TODO: for export options, combine OSIs
            - for instance Batman/Bruce Wayne can get combined into "one"
            - just one color? or keep the original colors
        TODO: when exporting you can choose to only export specific OSIs

    IN PROGRESS: Setup Tab
        - A UI that is specifically designed for inputing names and individual character events
        - Let's you build a list of all the events a charater might experience in film
            - i.e.: born, died, banished, "got the ring" etc.
        - need input controls when on different tabs 
            - when in export, the global timer stops, hotkeys will be different, etc
        done: add and control all events an item has
        
 
TODO: hot keys
    - allow for toggling on and off OSIs with keyboard keys
    - the hotkeys will always stay the same even if the order of the OSIs changes
TODO: have tab key show the hotkeys for all items on screen 
    - or just what the controls are in general?
        - maybe another tab
    - like the overwatch team info screen



TODO: the OST header should be styled like the credits in Fight Club
    - white letters, blue shadow, correct font
TODO: global cursor? - in the editor
    - ititially let you go back and figure out events
    - go back and update screen time later
    - EDIT mode? toggle what things can be changed and whatnot with a button that appears?
