Description
Your idea
Add the ability to redo/reapply the previous score operation, such as Transpose. Currently, there is no way to repeat the last operation on a new selection.
Problem to be solved
I use the redo option in things like Microsoft Word a lot, where you can reapply the last command to a new selection. This would be great in MuseScore, for instance, if you're doing a lot of transpositions, to redo without having to open up the Transpose dialog box each time.
Prior art
Microsoft Word and many other apps have functionality like this.
