Hope to add or adjust the following content:

  1. It would be great to have a preview window that shows how the chart would look like when you play the game. And it would be awesome if there's a pop-up window for recording purposes.

  2. Currently, when using the spacebar to pause, it stops at the current position. However, when creating a chart, it is often necessary to repeatedly check and adjust the notes. I hope that a new shortcut, such as Ctrl+space, can be used to pause and return to the position that I start playing the music.

  3. Currently, we need to select the type of note every time when placing notes. It takes up a lot of time and slows down the process. I hope that in the future, we could use more intuitive mouse and keyboard shortcuts, such as left and right clicks, Ctrl, Shift, Alt, Tap, WASD, to place notes more efficiently.

For example,
Shift+left click to select a bunch of notes,
left click to drop a tap note,
hold left click and right click to place a hold note,
drag up with the left click to create a flick note,
drag left or right with the left click to create a directional flick note,
hold Ctrl to change the note to a critical note when placing note,
use Q and W (maybe) to adjust the note size
... etc.

  1. Hope I can adjust the font size. It's too small on my screen

  1. I was working on a preview mode (see Simulator branch) in the past but haven't gone much with it because I wanted to focus more on the editing aspect and as such, it is quite out of date. In any case, implementing this will require more time and effort to re-create the note effects and such. tl;dr, it is an interesting addition and I might get back to it later on.
  2. I have implemented a command system as of late which allows customizing keyboard shortcuts for various commands (including this one). In the current version however, you can use Shift + Space to return to the original point.
  3. I am not sure if you are aware of this but you can switch the currently selected timeline tool using the number row. Again you will be able to customize the keys to your liking with the next version.
  4. I will look into it.

Thanks for reply.

I didn't notice shift+space. That helps a lot.
And I do notice the number row can select different note, but I think if we can palacing a note with only one operation will be more straight forward. I have use Cylheim to chart Cytus II for a while. I think they do very good job on this aspect.

Also, I think of more features that might be added.

  1. Half speed playing. To confirm what the music is more easyly.

  2. Sometimes the beat are very tricky. Like "KINGWORLD" we have 15/22 beats. Though we can use 192 division and do approximating, it still painful to find the proper position. Hope we can have some function such as auto filling some note between 2 position, to deal with it.
