Description
Issue type
UX/Interaction bug (incorrect behaviour)
Description with steps to reproduce
Imagine that a user wants to add a chord note to a trill cue note. What is he doing:
- Enter a chord of two (or more) notes
- Add a trill line to the entered chord
- Enable the cue note visibility in the trill Properties
- Click on the displayed trill cue note
- Press the key combination Shift + [chord key from A to G]
The trill cue note will move up an uncountable number of ledger lines. Obviously, this should not be the case.
Expected behaviour
In general, the trill cue note should have been initially displayed as a chord, and then the user would not have to resort to this kind of manipulation. As a result, there is a contradiction between what is written and what sounding:
