Support for n-toles

Currently, it seems to be impossible to write uncommon notes such as pentoles (5 notes on one tick).
Would be nice ...

well you can place notes independent of snap, so you should be able to size any note to any size, and plce that in any pos:
manual note size:
*grab right end of note and make sure you can size it
*hold mouse, and press ALT.
*Note can now be arbitary sized to any size. The size is also 'last-note-size'
Placement (almost the same)
*Grab note, and make sure you can move it
*hold mouse, and press ALT.
*Note can now be places arbitary
Is that solving it?

https://github.com/LMMS/lmms/issues/1530 Perhaps in the future yes, you could probably file an enhancement on this site since it isn't one already

Yes, it solves it, thanks! I didn't know of the ALT key. I can even select all notes and ALT-resize them to fit in one bar or one tick or whatever.

Isn't the Shift key more useful for creating n-toles? I'm not sure when it got added, but it works like this in master branch (and upcoming 1.2, most likely):

Looks like I got a bit carried away there, the shift-resize feature is somewhat unsuitable for this purpose.
