Description

Suggetion
It could be useful, if it was possible to replay only selected notes, in piano roll. Meaning that un-selected notes passed by the playhead, would be mute.
This feature would also be possible, if lmms had an 'invert-selected' feature, meaning that selected notes would turn un-selected, and un-selected would turn selected. Maby as easy as to switch a boolean(?)

Research direction

The issue proposes two related piano-roll features: muting unselected notes during playback and adding an “invert-selected” action. First locate the piano-roll selection and playback entry points, then clarify whether both behaviors are required and define tests or manual checks for selection inversion and playback.
