[x] I have checked the Trello and confirmed that the feature is not already planned
Description
I would like the ability to assign a keybind to a particular slider from the pattern gallery, so that I can place many types of patterns very easily! An example way this could be implemented is through a key-chording setup (like VS Code with Ctrl+K by default).
Motivation
I personally think that the slider library has an amazing amount of potential in heavily reducing the amount that one needs to redraw sliders (and in building guides for rhythm that can also somewhat serve as pattern planning), and as such I'd love the ability to place anything from my library quickly and easily.
As a potential application of a workflow like this, I'd probably have 1/2, 3/4, and 1/1 varieties of:
Basic slider shapes like curves, waves, arches, zigzags, and petals (I have no idea what they are actually called)
Triangular, rectangular, pentagonal, and hexagonal geometric patterns
Sharp, linear, and wide angle circle patterns
These would be scaled and rotated as appropriate to make work in whatever map I'm trying to work on. This doesn't remove all time consumption of mapping, obviously, but it would make placing and moving nodes of sliders (which I perceive to be one of the most time-consuming aspects of mapping) trivial.
The current solution for this is fine, but ultimately annoying when trying to do anything quickly. The closest that one can get to this idea currently is by setting the QuickRun "no objects selected" to the pattern gallery and then running it, but this is obviously extremely limited in comparison to what is proposed here.
