Larger Pattern Navigation Arrows on Touch Devices?

Post by samu »

Hi!

Currently the 'navigation arrows' used to navigate the pattern editor are quite small.
It could be handy to be able to 'zoom' them in a similar way that the piano keys can be zoomed to make them easier to target.

Also if possible it could be nice to be able to 'tap to set cursor position' when editing a pattern in addition to the swipe moves.

Cheers!

You can enable the selection mode for this :)

Thanks, that was not immediately obvious 8)
In 'selection mode' it's quite awkward to scroll though so when selection mode is enabled maybe enable vertical and horizontal scroll bars?

Using two fingers to 'pan/scroll' the pattern area doesn't work so well and triggers the 'zoom'.
(Preferable action here would be 'pinch' to zoom in/out and two-finger swipe to pan/scroll).

Still bigger navigation buttons could be handy when doing step-entry of notes.

I feel this is an area that needs a bit of polish on touch-devices.

Cheers!
