So the case is:
Assume there is a note on row X.
Select the 'note area' from X to X+Y by CLICKING ROW X+Y FIRST then releasing at row X. (Don't select anything else, e.g. volume area.)
Now try to drop the area onto row X+Y. And it doesn't work.
The program probably assumed that this drag-dropping 'drags the area onto the same row'?
Steps are confusing, I can't figure out what you're trying to describe....
Not sure if they're relevant or not, but a few things I noted while attempting to follow:
- Every time you click on a row FamiTracker resolves your click point to one row only (X or Y). It is literally impossible to click on two rows simultaneously.
- When you select by mouse, there's a certain pixel threshold you have to cross before the selection is actually made. You can use this to select just one note (by mouse, not keyboard).
And here's some steps I tried:
Select a group of notes (say, from row X to X+2, across both Note and Instrument columns). Now, click on one of those notes in the selection and start dragging the mouse to engage drag-and-drop mode. Drag the selection various places and note the gray shadow noting exactly where the group of notes will be dropped; release the mouse to cut-and-paste notes from the old to new location. It works even if the new location overlaps (or is the same as) the old location; so I fail to see any problems.
One issue I do see is that if you drag-and-drop notes onto an area that is already occupied, those notes are overwritten (the same as an actual Cut + Paste operation) when in some cases you might want those notes to get shifted around (as if you literally removed the row(s) from the measure and then re-inserted them to the new location). But that's more complicated and carries side effects of its own.
