[DONE]Shift rows - resynthesize - 01-10-2018
I would like the ability to shift all rows in a pattern up or down with a keyboard shortcut.
For example, starting with this:
00 C-2
01 ---
02 D-2
03 ---
Pressing the shortcut to shift down once would result in this: (all rows shifted down)
00 ---
01 C-2
02 ---
03 D-2
Conversely, pressing the opposite shortcut would shift them back up, so you end up where you started. I don't have a preference as to what happens to rows that get pushed off the stack, maybe they can wrap back around to the other side or just be purged.
Shift+Down/Shift+Up seem like logical key combos to me, but I don't really care what they are as long as there is some fast way to do it.
This will make editing a lot faster (for me at least!)
Thanks!

In theory this is possible by inserting empty rows. First copy an empty row, and then insert (shift) as many as you like by using shift + down + copy.

Yes you can do this already by marking a row (or multiple rows) and press SHIFT+UP+DELETE = Deletes the row and shifts everything below up.
Or for insert. (SHIFT+) Mark a empty row or multiple rows. Press SHIFT+Mark again. Now go to the place where you want the row(s) to be inserted. Press SHIFT+DOWN+COPY. It will insert the empty rows then and shifts everything down one or more rows.
Latest version needed for this.
As they are not enough dedicated buttons i have to take care to add shortcuts by pressing key combinations. I have already something else in mind for SHIFT+UP/DOWN.
RE: Shift rows - resynthesize - 01-10-2018
Thanks guys. For shifting down/inserting (per Mat's suggestion, thanks!), you only need to mark a row once, copy, and then press insert as many times as you need. For shifting up/deleting you have to mark an empty block each time before deleting, which is pretty cumbersome.
Marking a row before inserting or deleting seems unnecessary anyway, it would be great if the following could happen if there is no mark currently:
SHIFT+DOWN+COPY: Shifts all columns in a row down by 1
SHIFT+UP+DELETE: Shifts all columns in a row up by 1
I know this is not my module, I'm just providing some suggestions based on past experience that would make editing a lot easier/faster. Thanks for your consideration.
RE: Shift rows - XORadmin - 01-10-2018
SHIFT+DOWN+COPY is already in use to copy a before marked part while shifting down the rest. It works for one or multiple rows (or parts of it).
SHIFT+UP+DELETE could be probably used for this, i will think about it.
SHIFT+DOWN+DELETE could be used to insert a empty row and shift the rest 1 down.
I didn't double check this yet but it seems to be possible unused combinations.
I will think about it, it is usefull for sure. ( i know that based on my 20+ years experience with all kind of trackers ;-) )
......but all step by step, for now you can do all you need and it will only get better
Thanks for the suggestion.

Hello! First post by a very happy owner of nerdseq. I just want to chime in on this and say that this request is something I would find very useful. I was a user of jeskola buzz for many years and I thought this function made it really quick and intuitive when making sequences.
Congrats on making an great sequencer, I love mine!
