Description

Issue type

UX/Interaction bug (incorrect behaviour)

Description with steps to reproduce

I could've sworn this was logged, but I couldn't find it on a recent search.

  1. Write a note with a grace note
  2. Using opt+arrow, select the notes from the left and from the right. From the left, the primary note is skipped, from the right it is not

The note and grace note can be selected without using the option key, but selecting an articulation via keyboard navigation can only be done from the right
