FR: "Dupicate/move to staff" respect Chord mode state

When I invoke the commands to move or duplicate to staff above/below, the selected items will always be added to whatever might already be there, as if Chord mode was activated. (But it’s not.)
I’ve searched around and found no configuration to change this.

My feature request: Please make the commands “Move to staff above/below” and “Duplicated to staff above/below” respect the activation state of Chord mode the same way many other editing commands already do: If Chord mode is active, content will be added, if it is inactive, content will be replaced.

(Reading the documentation, this should probably already be the correct behaviour, because there is no exception mentioned anywhere regarding Chord mode not being respected for these commands.)

Thanks! :slight_smile:

I think this was a recent discussion here on the forum just a few days ago, but I support your message.

I did search before, but nothing specific came up…
If this topic is a duplicate, please Mods feel free to close it (or merge the post).

Here is probably the thread you’re remembering. Not very clear or conclusive; this FR is clearer.
