Nudge (note/block editing tool)

The tool simplifies (hopefully) moving up / down of a note under the cursor or notes in a block. Accessible through pattern editor’s menu and hotkeys.

Update:

Works correctly with multiple tracks.

It looks like when I nudge my selection a second time in the same direction, it is actually nudged back to where it started.

Is there any way to keep nudging whatever was last nudged in the same direction if the nudge shortcut is typed multiple times?

For example, if I have this pattern:

--- --
--- --
--- --
C-4 00

And if C-4 is selected and I nudge up, the pattern becomes:

--- --
--- --
C-4 00
--- --

Currently, if I nudge up again, the pattern goes back to:

--- --
--- --
--- --
C-4 00

Instead of this, I’d like to request that the behavior of nudging a second time results in this pattern:

--- --
C-4 00
--- --
--- --

And nudging a third time would result in:

C-4 00
--- --
--- --
--- --

… all without changing the current selection.

Is this possible?

The way you want it to work, is how it suppose to work, as long as you’re within block selection. It does here anyway. Maybe I uploaded something busted. Will check it out later.

can this or something better than thia be implemented as standard please @taktik

is there a version of this which moves not the selection, but what you have under your cursor, and moves the contents together with the cursor itself?

That’s impossible to do. There is no access to cursor position.

Interesting. Is there access to note column position ?

Alrighty

Moves note, instrument and volume

That’s already explained. Instead of block selection, note under cursor is moved.

Oh hell, it’s been a while… Moving what’s underneath the cursor was already there !
