Shortcut key for "tie from previous"

Your idea

For some of the workflows it would be usefull to have an acttion to add tie to current note or chord from a previous note or chord. For example it would allow to keep a consistent pattern for note entry with midi keyboard:

• select length
• enter chord with midi keyboard
• proposed optionally tie to previous notes

Right now you have to break a habbit by switching to add a tied note or chord with + instead of continuing to use pattern above.

Here is a community thread on this issue https://musescore.org/en/node/321973
and another one https://musescore.org/en/node/321161

Problem to be solved

Allow to maintain a pattern for notation input which many users share *

* A number of questions about this issue, and a form in which users formulate it tells that users differentiate to different actions:

1. tie two existing notes
2. add a tied note

Currently + or t by users perception, performs action 2, to perform action 1 you have to change selection. Users think that proposed type of tie action already exists so the best solution is to make it exisst.

Additional context

This should be default behaviour for Rythm input mode.

Unless it's not something what would be considered a generally bad idea I would take a look into implementation of this issue.

Start by reviewing the two linked community threads and the issue's distinction between tying existing notes and adding a tied note. Trace the current + or t action and Rhythm input behavior; done means the requested shortcut/action supports tying the current note or chord from a previous one without disrupting the stated entry pattern.
