SIGNe-Text colour tab does not open

The colour picker for SIGNe-Text does not open when the colour button is clicked.

Thanks for the heads up, @sassetmusic-afk ! This is due to the fact that the colour window for SIGNe-Symbol has been merged into a combined Properties window (which also includes the pattern and symbol selection options as well as the MIDI Trigger options), and I haven't handled the version of that for SIGNe-Text yet.

For the sake of consistency, I think that it would actually probably make sense to use the Properties window for both SIGNe-Symbol and SIGNe-Text. Since SIGNe-Text doesn't use the symbol palette, I could hide that when a SIGNe-Text object is selected (and potentially replace it with copies of the text options). @Pllecours , @sassetmusic-afk , I'd be happy to have your input on this!

I replaced the "Colour" button in SIGNe-Text with "Properties" button that opens the properties menu. When a SIGNe-Text symbol is selected, the UI elements in the Properties window that are not relevant to text objects (the symbol and pattern palettes as well as the pattern tiling and colour options) are hidden, and when a SIGN-Symbol device is selected, they're revealed again. The symbol colour pickers work to control the colour of SIGNe-Text objects.

It feels pretty awkward to have all this empty space in the Properties window. Does it make sense to include some of the text controls there (e.g. a text input window, line spacing, bounds, etc.)?

Incidentally, I added buttons to set the text to bold and/or italic - they're in the main UI, right above the font selection dropdown menu.

Let's keep it like that for now, and optimize this aspect in the next weeeks. Works fine on my end
