Hi Daniel,

This isn't really relevant to this particular blog post, but I thought I'd post it while it's on my mind: two things I've been using a lot this week (in the most recent version of a certain ubiquitous scoring program) are filters, and multiple voices on the same stave for writing drum parts. A few of things strike me that could be much improved:

1. Filters could be much more powerful by allowing accessing to selecting and deselecting (the latter is only available via a limited plug-in.

2. Many classes of objects are not available to filter with (e.g. tremolos, cue-sized objects - though the latter is again in a plug-in)

3. When you move notes from one voice to another some parameters stay (e.g. articulation) others don't (e.g. tremolo, cue-size). They should all be bound to the note and carry through if you switch which voice it's in.

I'm sure these are massively niche concerns, but I've just caused myself several hours of extra work by the need to alter the layout of some old transcriptions to achieve a consistent presentation and these three features would save most of this time.

All the best,

Will
