inconsistent behaviour of Ctrl + Up/Down while in MIDI editor #994

Open Timtam opened 8 months ago

Timtam commented 8 months ago

Ctrl + Up/Down while in MIDI editor are currently mapped to those actions:

That sounds fine so far, until you notice that it, although selecting the MIDI item that is on the previous/next track, it doesn't seem to select the track, because F5 (mute) and F6 (solo) will remain on the track that you originally opened the MIDI editor on. It'd however be awesome if track selection would kind of follow the Ctrl + Up/Down keystrokes so that you don't need to leave MIDI editor to update the selection so that F5 and F6 start to work again. Anything we can do about that?

I can understand why this would be nice. However, these actions do specifically refer to "MIDI track", not track in general. Also, this is builtin REAPER behaviour. Unless there's some reason we think screen reader users are especially different to everyone else in this case, I don't think we should be overriding this in OSARA. It might be reasonable to take this up with Cockos as a general request for REAPER, though.
