Hm I have a similar dream regularly for the MAC version :-)

1) For example, writing notes in editing would be just as effective as, for example, Guitar Pro, MuseScore, Sibelius .. Just be inspired
2) So that at least when printing or after freezing, chord diagrams can be displayed similarly to all music applications
3) To allow the user to define keyboard shortcuts, eg for deleting or correcting a note in note editing mode. Today it is necessary via the context menu.
4) Because I'm Czech and we have those weird letters with hooks in the alphabet. So that BIAB respects them in all places, especially in file names and lyrics
5) So that printing notes from LeadSheet is not a job for the killer, but allows you to visually format the final form of the sheet music. Today I prefer to export to MuseScore or Sibelia and I will only print the score there
6) Be able to enter fingering and thus notes in the melody and solois track by writing in tablature, on specific strings and frets as is usual in tabulation programs such as Guitar Pro or Tabledit. For example, through a virtual guitar fingerboard or other stringed instrument.

7) In short, if at times the colleagues in PG were inspired by the competition and maybe came up with another more perfect way, such as dictation, as we write SMS messages today. For example, I would say tablature
"E 0 2 3 4" and the notes on the string E (e, fis, g, gis) would be written :-).

8) I know that BIAB has been around for about 30 years and in some places it is quite visible. Even so, I love it, and I just have a problem explaining it to new users who are used to other standards from other music programs, and I have to say that unfortunately it discourages some from buying it.

9) For most users in our country in the Czech Republic, BIAB is a relatively expensive program, which due to the changes is mainly expensive annual UPDATE and UPGRADE, although it does not bring new features for the user from the point of view of the user. Many of them told me that with the same content, they would only need to upgrade the basic application and not always upgrade the most expensive package they bought at the beginning.

Despite the above BIAB I only love these dreams of me, sometimes (about 10 times a day) when using circles over my head.

I hope I will not be completely crucified and dishonored :-) Sorry for the bad English, it's probably Google Translator's fault
