[Begginer question] My "loop" on the piano roll is too small

[Hilum Fluttersun]

Hello,


I just started using LMMS and I tried to do a little tune with the piano roll, but the tune ends before the piano roll loops back to the beginning. I don't know if the wording is understandable so here is a picture :



How can I make it so it loops back where my tune ends ? Will this cause me problems in the future if I do this ?


Thanks a lot in advance, have a nice day and stay hydrated !

Piano roll always loops in complete bars/measures. If your tune doesn't fill the measure there will always be a gap before it loops round.

Yes and no :P
The piano-roll will loop-back at a bar-divider, that is true!
But the position of the bar-divider, is not fixed! That position is controlled by the time-signature!
Look at this video: https://youtu.be/39uFMAoFOPU
You need to find the time-signature, that fits your composition, so the bar-divider is at the point where your last note ends
