Been thinking about chord selection again, while working on a project that has me drafting tons of different chord progressions and copying, altering, transposing, etc. Every time I do it, it feels like one or two extra clicks than necessary even with a shortcut for filter chords, and it requires me to have system track enabled (which I normally prefer to disable).
I would also ultimately prefer click (leftmost chord symbol), shift click (rightmost chord symbol), but I know that chord selection changed a while back because people were accidentally moving/copying things they didn’t mean to.
One alternative: a shortcut for “select system track corresponding to currently selected note range” where I can click one note at the beginning of the desired range, shift click a note at the end, hit the shortcut and it does a full vertical (up and down, including chords) select of the full system. The current selection expansion options seem to only expand horizontally. Then I could copy and paste music with the chord symbols attached without accidentally leaving them off (happens often), and I could build that shortcut into a macro of (click leftmost note), (shift click rightmost note), macro [select system area, filter chords]
Or, if the system track has to stay involved and visible, there could be a shortcut to tick system track box that I can macro into the chord selection shortcut, so it’s click (leftmost system track bar), shift click (rightmost system track bar), macro [tick system track box, filter chords]
Thanks for all the hard work! Super grateful for this app, now more than ever.
