Annual Request: Bar Number Even/Odd Display Key Command

This is one of those tiny things that is hard to put into words but would -really- be nice.

Currently, when zooming in and out, when the magnification reaches a certain point, the bar numbers skip to showing only odd numbers, then every 4th bar, then ever 8th bar, etc. But ALWAYS the odd numbered bar,

1,3,5,7,etc.
1,5,9,13,etc.

I want a command that instantly switches that to the EVEN numbers

2,4,6,8,etc.
2,6,10,14,etc.

Not a big deal, right? But it would help ME a lot.

This is definitely a .0 improvement, IMO.

@suntower: It’s still not possible, right?

Now that Cubase shows vertical (potentially colored) lines for markers, it’s even more annoying, given that most markers for most songs will be on even bar numbers:

I’ve posted a similar request a while ago:
