Dorico 4 freboard chord entry

I’m trying out using the fretboard in Dorico 4 to enter music from a printed lute tablature staff as notation in order to make a guitar arrangement. When entering a chord on the Sibelius fretboard the notes entered remain on the fretboard until the chord is complete which makes it easier to see at a glance that the correct chord shape has been entered. On Dorico this does not happen, thus losing the visual feedback this offers. Might it be possible for this to be introduced as an option in a future update?

Thanks for the suggestion, @pogmoor. This is an interesting one: the Fretboard shows the selected notes, but as you build a chord, only the last input note remains selected. Perhaps we can do something special when the caret is active. I’ll make a note and we’ll see about doing this in future.
