Description

Issue type

UX/Interaction bug (incorrect behaviour)

If I make a range selection, I am unable to add an instrument change from the top menu via Add>Text>Instrument

I am able to do so from the palette, these should behave the same.

  1. Make a range selection
  2. Add>Text>Instrument
