Thanks for the feedback. I'll add help files and explain scaler/pentanizer differences. Scaler is "traditional" way of learning scales, but I think pentanizer makes more sense...it just needs to be explained bit more. My main focus right now is to introduce print possibilities. I am just bit tight on time right now.

This is great! I've been working on trying to work these out on the fly, and this is a great way to check yourself.

One feature idea: options to display seven and eight string versions of the chart. Extended range guitars are popular, and there aren't many great scale references.

Could you say a little more? I think I understand the "scaler" and it's how I learned the scales and how I practice, but I'm curious what the pentanizer is suggesting to do. Picking a root and an interval and finding it all over the fretboard?

There is a youtube link video link included which explains the concept.

That’s pretty awesome - I hadn’t seen it before. Thanks for the link!
