Since I have BiaB 2020, I'm not sure if this is already possible in BiaB 2021, but if not:
I'd wish to have the option to integrate/embed the Big Piano Window resp. the Fretboard (depending on which one the user just needs) into the main window. Perfect would be, in my opinion, to be able to toggle between overlapping mode and integrated mode, and in integrated mode with the piano/fretboard horizontally stretched over the complete bottom of the main window (but vertically with an adjustable height).
BiaB Pro 2022; Windows 10 Bass: Intermediate; Piano: Beginner I came to this forum in order to suggest feature improvements for non-professional musicians like myself that use BiaB mainly as a playalong tool and as a learning tool
this is, roughtly sketched, my preferred layout (green = toolbar, black = chords window, pink = mixer, red = piano window resp. fretboard window, blue = drum window):
The upper one is not possible in 2020 (since either the chords window would be covered by the mixer or the toolbar would be cut off critically), but seems to be possible in 2021. The layout in the bottom is possible already with 2020.
I think that in both cases and still in 2021, at least the piano/fretboard window and the drum window still have to be independent windows. I myself can live with that, but it took me quite a while until I figured out how to achieve the desired layout. So maybe for other users it will be useful if this would also be achievable with all windows truely integrated and then to draw the borders of each window to the desired position in regard to window widths and window heigths (while independent windows should still be available for those users who want to spread their BiaB windows over different monitors).

Yeah - that's exactly the kind of concept that I had in mind!
Thanks for posting that video, explains it much better than my o-sketches

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
