I would recommend that we open a feature request and provide a few examples of specific simplifications to get things started. https://sourceforge.net/p/rosegarden/feature-requests/ Not sure if you have an account on sourceforge. If not, just post a few examples here and I'll get the feature request started. Ted. On 11/29/21 7:39 AM, MST wrote: Hi Ted! Hi there!

Here's some input from trying to test as much as possible: - Inserting tuplets with the keyboard.

Thanks for catching this one. I suspect it might be related to Bug #1464. I've added your observation to Bug #1464 and our test plan on the wiki. Hopefully Philip will have some time to look at this before delivery. Otherwise I'm faced with a difficult decision. This is some pretty fundamental stuff and it should work even if entering 7-tuplets doesn't. What to do? Remove the changes? Ship with the bug? Postpone the delivery? Not sure at the moment. - Track > Add Tracks…. Test the new Device and Instrument fields. If more than one track is added each subsequent track has device + 1: is this expected? Yes.

No. Since the devices might be radically different between the two files, I decided just to punt on this for now. It's certainly something that would be helpful, especially when the devices are obviously exactly the same. I'll add some comments to the code for the future. If someone actually needs this, they can open a feature request. See MergeFileCommand.cpp::copyType() in the code. - File open/save dialogs: General > Presentation > Use native file dialogs.
