Add other elements to selection filter #22040

Open Thiago-Morais opened 7 months ago

Your idea

Add to selection filter

Add option "Selected Only"

Problem to be solved

This is the only way to do a complex element selection. This is a major problem, particularly on big scores/ensembles. If, for instance, I want to copy a dynamics + hairpin structure from the 20+ staffs I could just open the selection filter, disable all, and enable only Dynamics and Hairpins. Then I can just select the sections, and copy and paste.

However, currently, if I uncheck "Voice 1" I can't select anything in voice 1, but if I check "Voice 1", then everything that is not on the selection filter is also selected (Note heads, Stems, Note dots, Accidentals, Tie segments, Breaks) even if "Voice 1" is the only checked option.

Only "Voice 1" checked but anything else

image This should be and empty selection

Only "Hairpins" and "Dynamics" checked besides "Voice 1"

image This should select only the dynamics and hairpins
