Delete all blocks to the right of play-head #1393

Open musikBear opened 9 years ago

musikBear commented 9 years ago

lmms already has the cogwheel option clear this track. This should be implementable the same way, but in sequence (cascade), and from a time or bar pos. -so: Im sure all has had projects where a lot of blocks has been pushed to the right, and now just sits there as one huge mess, to the right of a finnished project. So an option in Edit, that 'simply'.. would allow the user to remove either all blocks in specified track, a.o. in all tracks, would be nifty, to clean up the mess to the right of the project. This would be a one-off procedure, not re-doable, and a pre-warn, with user acknowlegde, should be shown, before the actual process took part. (iow, collatral damage precausions :)

You haven't made an enhancement proposal for delete time interval already? Maybe you just mentioned in the delete selection thread.

@musikBear @tresf @Sti2nd Can you help me figure what's this issue's about?

Does the new timeline selection fix the problem? Is this still needed?

musikBear commented 9 years ago

afai understand, timeline selection, would be for all tracks inside the time-span -yes? This proposal is also for single tracks, but that situation could be handled more intuitive, with an option to process selected track only, in the timeline feature.

Still needed. There are many neat features that could be put into the window menus, this is one of them. In Song Editor it could be "delete all automations", "delete all B&B tracks", "delete all patterns", "change color of all B&B segments to default color", and many more.
