Echoing earlier discussion. This is my idea / wish for bar controls of all tracks including Utility Tracks. Since I believe there is a real limit to bar beat "type in" space, this seems like a coherent idea. Bar settings (as we know it) and Shots, holds, rests, pushes are all related to Bar settings. So why not join them together for a more streamlined editing?
P.S. Ohh yes, I also think "chord builder" should be also a "tabbed" item at Bar settings...but that is next wish list idea
I thinks that's a good way to go. I had to freeze frame the gif to see the chord setting, So if I select the chord on beat 2 it will show all the tracks exempt from the select type "Hold" when "All Exempts" are selected, and same with Pushes. Yes I think that's right to have the Chord Options in F5 also as the Chord Options dialog only has the 5 tracks in it, and they could also mirror your Chord Settings dialog in the Chord Options dialog giving it an update.
Rusty. this was kind of what i was hoping for with either my tabbed view or linear view concept. which pipeline did graphics for. eg right clik over cel to get an enhanced/more featured F5. frankly i prefer "slide" option to push as its more flexible. best muso. ps in your concept how does a user flexibly regen part of a bar , a whole bar , or a series of bars for one trak ?. reason i ask is, in the other thread a user would just hilite the cels/boxes in bars view. or for part of a bar right clik over a cel etc etc. to regen.

my songs....mixed for good earbuds...(fyi..my vocs on all songs..) https://soundcloud.com/alfsongs (90 songs created useing bb/rb) (lots of tips of mine in pg tips forum.)
Ohh, if people wonder, I am not asking for conceptually new features, just suggesting combining "Bar settings" and existing "Chord Setting" menus for time saving convenience of doing everything in a single window especially when U.Tracks will gain necessary bar features. The functions in my sketch are exact of what "Chord Setting" has now (minus U.Tracks)
Pipeline, good catch on "if I select the chord on beat 2 it will show all the tracks exempt from the select type "Hold"" The answer is yes. I remembered today that I forgot to color that in and then saw you reply. You are not listening to my thoughts, are you?
Muso, freeze parts of arrangement is not a part of this wishlist item. Freeze parts of arrangement or bar-to-bar regeneration is final BIG piece of the puzzle. I consider other requests as relatively minor compared to that. Lets leave that for another wish topic, not this one
Maybe sliders might represent the offset better to advance or retard ? I don't know if there is an option to have sliders in those dialogs ? Fit to Screen
In addition to the proposed solution, BIAB could perhaps also propose the configuraton of the bar settings in a specific way for each track (addition of an item in the contextual menu of the mixer)?
I think it has been recently realized that many combinations could significantly improve the functionality and smoothness of operation of the product. Let's hope this catches on.
