I would like to have the following feature in the pattern editor:
* Directional copy+paste. When this feature is used, the current "expanded" selection is copied to the right, left, up or down.
Description of "expanded": If one only has a part of a section selected, the expanded selection is the minimal selection that contains both the original selection and only whole sections.
This is actually a feature I use a lot in Eclipse when coding and it is a very good time saver.
In Eclipse, the key combination ctrl+alt+up/down is used for this. In OpenMPT one can also use the left/right for copy+paste to the left and right.
