Infinite Length System (Long score) #401

Open NalihznehC opened 1 year ago

NalihznehC commented 1 year ago

Description The length of the current system is fixed to allow for printing (I assume). However, if I want to make tab videos using a very long rolling tab, my method is to use image processing software (such as MS Paint) to connect the different systems together in a long image. I would like to see a new feature of:

  1. one system with infinite (or at least adjustable) length;
  2. I can increase or decrease the density of elements by a certain means (such as pressing Insert for adding spaces and shift+insert for deleting spaces);
  3. I can add as many elements as I want into one system without overpopulate the system (maybe by appending new elements at the current ending).

Somewhat related to #50

A very simple approach might be to just provide a horizontal layout that draws systems one after another horizontally rather than vertically

Big brain move! Thank you, this approach will solve the short-term issue, but I still look forward to seeing it in the program if possible :)
