FamiTracker
There does not appear to be any way to turn this feature off, but I desperately need it to be disabled. I keep highlighting an entire channel as a result of how fast I am clicking, and it is really slowing me down.
So you click faster than the fastest double-click speed setting of Windows?
As for this feature, I'm actually using FamiTracker 0.3.0 & can tell you that double-clicking on any area of a channel will highlight it even in this version. The point is to single-click & go a bit slower with your mouse-handling, since double-clicking isn't supposed to do what you think it should.
You might also want to explain what you intended double-clicking to do before your need to have an option to disable this.

When I am editing notes, or even placing notes, some times I want to get to a row that I know is an certain number of rows away. So I will leave the mouse cursor two rows under my current selected row, and just CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK down to the right row. This is faster than using the keyboard (which needs a click for every row), and it is faster and less annoying than moving the mouse cursor to each desired row every time.
Since I only work on songs that have notes on even rows, doing this technique for 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, and 32 are actually something I do very often. Especially for groups of notes that are all evenly spaced apart. Or especially if I am trying to write notes that are always a certain number of rows apart. What if there is a note that I need to be twice as far apart, in a group of notes that are all evenly apart? Just double-click to get twice as far! So if you know what your rhythmic pattern should sound like, ie: quarter note quarter note, half note quarter note. You go leftclick enternote leftclick enternote leftclick leftclick enternote leftclick enternote.
This is really just a way of getting to the row I need with the fewest number of clicks or thinking possible. Something I am very use to with Modplug, but is practically crippling me in FamiTracker.
While I've got you here, on the topic of the next version, there is one other thing that I have often wondered about:
When FT is set to ModPlug mode, the top row for entering notes "qwertyuiop[" does not go in chromatic order. Typing the notes out in the order above, from left to right, results in the following notes C C# D D# E F F# G G# A B A#
I'm not sure if it was intended, but the notes B and A# are reversed from their chromatic order. Something I come across a lot, which is not really a hard thing to bypass, but I am curious if maybe it has never been brought up?
That one has to do with jsr having a Swedish keyboard actually. Same reason the default notecut key is the same as note release.
Didn't know that messed with mpt mode though
Why not post a picture of the Swedish keyboard layout? I could help you out a bit with that.
Basically, what you'd need to do is install the US English language & keyboard for Windows, but you'll need some kind of a reference so that you can use your Swedish keyboard as a US keyboard.

I'm using my French Canadian keyboard as a Portuguese keyboard, so I'm willing to bet using a Swedish keyboard as a US English keyboard is no harder.

I record (some) NSFs on hardware. Feel free to [url=http://www.famitracker.com/forum/posts.php?id=3633]request a hardware render.
I have layouts for English and other languages installed, that's not the problem. What I need to do is to find a way to read keyboard keys in a layout-neutral way.
That could prove difficult, unless MFC is capable of detecting keyboard layouts & automatically assigning the keys to the correct notes based on such info.
