Hi guys,

One idea came to my mind when I was working in midi editor. Selecting between drawing and editing mode is slightly slowing down the creative process. It would be great if we could select notes imidiately in drawing mode. I suggest that while holding the right mouse buttons the notes could be selected in midi editor while in drawing mode. This would almost completley eliminate the need for edit mode button and speed up the work flow.

Tell me what do you think.
Best regards

You can
hold ctrl+left-mouse. Then you have select, just as if you switch the tool
But
Unfortunately the switch occasionally 'hang'. then you have to select the draw-pencil in the speedbar before you can add notes again. The glitch is old, and will be stomped
There are several other ways. I better make a guide.

Oh, it is working! Hah Lmms is full of those nice secrets. I think the user manual needs an update also Thanx again!
