Can we design a Keyboard for the Chord Picker?
And then, I click on the note, and I get this chord.

Distance: I hit E,G,C,E on the KeyBoard
So, it shows C/E

Is this BIAB? I don't think so.

This will display the notes but not build by notes entered:

Thank you for all your examples.

I still wish the BIAB itself had a keyboard for clicking notes.

Are these images what you want in Biab ? If so it will give the developers an idea of what you want.

Yes. The KEYBOARD under the BB plugin can click on the note itself.

I hope the BIAB2025 main program can see a keyboard.
You can quickly see what notes the chord contains.

+1 for this idea. It could make a worthwhile learning tool for some users.

There's been a 'big piano keyboard' in BIAB since almost forever. Is that what you are inquiring about?

You can use Biab Window > MIDI Chord Detection
with a midi keyboard or a standalone keyboard that will lock notes down with ctrl+click

This one will lock keys on with right click and the Biab Midi Chord Detection will pickup and insert the chords.
it uses midiKeyboard.dll https://code.google.com/archive/p/pizmidi/downloads
and https://www.hermannseib.com/english/savihost.htm
use https://www.tobias-erichsen.de/software/loopmidi.html
rename savihost to the same name as the dll vst

midiKeyboard.dll
midiKeyboard.exe

set Biab midi input port to a LoopMidi port
set savihost midi out to the same port
in Biab Windows > MIDI Chord Detection

The BIAB VST has a keyboard, and I wish the BIAB main program had one too.
