Default Alright, now I remember! 3&

Alright, now I remember!

3) Mark, I hate, hate, HATE the piano roll note-lock "feature". When I change I note, I want it changed. I do not want to have to enter piano-roll view and unlock its duration so that I can change it. I don't care whether its duration, attack and release were part of the original midi file or .not file. I'm the user and I have the right to change things without Composer holding my hand and saying "no, no, no!"

As to the discussion above, I've been using Composer so long that it's all second nature to me. Any other programs I've looked at have their own strengths and weaknesses, but I've yet to see an on-screen display layout that is significantly better.

My only other major gripe is that Composer still rearranges pages on loading a file, so that I have to be very careful that the pagination is still the same between one print-out of a score and the next. I think that Composer should NEVER make a change to pagination on file-load -- there needs to be a way to stick it and lock it.

This is feeling like the old beta-testing days!
