Feature Request: Container Hierarchy

Posted

Hi Cognitones,

a) Since the lowest container overrides all above it, I would wish to have the possibility to lift a container up and down by hand.

b) And, just as an idea, for my opinion it would seem more logical, if the root container could be set by preferences as to be lowest, so the user builds "mountains" of  containers instead of "stalactites" - but, well, this is only a detail interface idea. ;-)

best,

Michael

I would like to see s 'mute' container command.  (can I do that by 'green pausing' instruments in the highest contaainer. 

 

I'd also like to see a layer of complexity added to containers so that it would be easier to cut/paste/move them.  Even nesting a containers seems pretty tricky. (perhaps I should adjust quantization to whole note for more ease?)

 

I would also like to see a mute note command. So I can easily try an alternative before deciding on course of action.

Hi Michael,

you can use the Up/Down arrow keys to move a parallel container vertically (which alters its priority).

The inheritance tree can not be inverted. Making the root container the highest priority would disable all other containers. Or are you talking about graphical layout only?

@markstyles: I hear you. Mute container is on the agenda already.

Hi Andre,

I'm indeed only talking about graphical layout candy: the possibility to have bottom-up or top-down as a global user preference.

And btw: +1 thumps up dark matter!!
