Copy/Paste only steps that have a value? - lightbreaker - 01-29-2023

Hey everyone,

I'm new here and only have my Nerdseq for a few days. I've been watching lots of videos on the Nerdseq and been reading through the manual before I made the purchase, so luckily I found my way around really quickly once it was here.

While composing I was trying to find a way to copy values from one pattern to the next without empty steps from the original pattern overwriting steps that have values in the pattern I want to copy into.

Suppose these are my two patterns:

Code:
P1 | P2

   | 

C  | E

-- | G

D  | F

-- | A

I want to copy P1 into P2 so that after P2 should look like this, ignoring the blank values from P1:

Code:
P2

C

G

D

A

Is this possible with some button combo or setting I haven't found yet? I've already tried to find an answer on the forum or elsewhere online, but without luck.

Sorry to bother with a newbie question and thanks for any help!

You didn‘t find it because there is no such function.
I would name it a merge function and you might want to add a feature request for that. But I see already some pitfalls here since the gating could surely create some unwanted stuff. I also don’t see a possible shortcut for this right now.
