Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The music tracker makes several menial tasks take several minutes when they could be seconds
Describe the solution you'd like -If I click to create/destroy a note, then hold and drag, this should continue creating or deleting notes on every tile I pass over. Creating undo events when the click starts then every ~5 or so notes would make accidentally overwriting notes easy to fix too.
-There should be a way to create, move, copy and paste selections, maybe holding shift while dragging and/or having it's own button in the tools bar.
-Setting loop zones within patterns. As this isn't a hugetracker feature (Afaik) it'd shift focus from simply being a uge editor to being a layered editor that exports to uge format, might be undesirable. More complicated interfacewise than the others but the way I visualize it is as this:
In (1), the loop set sets the pattern which is then looped in the loop area, which could not necessarily be contiguous to it. More complicated, turns loop sets into a sort of pattern-within-the-pattern. In this case it might be better to just implement a pattern object that can be made then dropped into the pattern editor.
In (2), the loop is just a zone. You edit the pattern, and it loops it from the beginning to the last defined note. Should have some way to tell you if the pattern isn't a length that correctly loops in the defined length. Much simpler to implement but not nearly as flexible. Gained simplicity would be worth imo.
