editing MIDI notes - dumb question?

im not really sure about this one,i do know i fix midi notes in the piano roll all time with the smart tool,i think what you have is a good idea though.

mondo I don't think it works like that but in PRV & staff you can click and drag the notes.  Just because the Amiga from 1988 could do something doesn't mean X1 can do it....and vice versa. I doubt that the features of X1 ....or even half of them were available in the Amiga in 88....

also in staff view if you right click the note a note property window opens and you can adjust the parameters of the note very precisely. 

In staff view, the notes will not drag chromatically. They are based on a key and follow the scale for that key which you are operating in.  You can adjust the note to whatever note you want in the note properties window. Changing the key from the default to the precise key you are working in however, will make editing in staff much easier. 

You can select all the notes of the same pitch and drag them anywhere in only two clicks with one hand!  I too used the Amiga with the Soundscape program.  I actually taught some classes on it at Midi City in L.A. back then.  We've come a long way baby.
