IMHO this is a really cool feature to have especially the fact that it's there also in matrix in notation, and makes the loop in Rosegarden much more 'sequencer idiomatic'! There might be an issue: if you start with 'traditional' loop mode, select a range (that also turns looping on) and then select the advanced looping in preferences, turning looping on/off still only affects traditional looping behaviour while you can only turn the advanced looping on/off by right clicking on the top bar. Additionally once in advanced loop mode you can't deselect the traditional loop range any more with right click as this is now 'grabbed' by advanced loop. Essentially the only way to get out of this situation is de-activating advanced loop mode in preferences and restarting rosegarden. Unless I'm missing something. I understand that advanced vs. traditional lives in the preference, with the idea that a user might just set it up once and not change it so frequently. Personally I'd see use cases for both while working on the same piece (e.g. using traditional loop for small segments like a verse or chorus, an then the advanced for a whole - potentially in progress - song), so maybe this is more minor and can go in the future release. Sorry for the terse feedback, I assume being a little redundant at this point is better than ambiguity :-) Lorenzo > > This is likely the end of my changes before feature freeze on the > 9th.
