I've always struggled with using tablets, especially using a surface pen. The two finger stuff is ok on big screens, but still a bit awkward, and really not great on something like a surface. I'd rather use a pen one handed. Unfortunately disabling touch gestures for the pen results in lagging and all kinds of annoying behavior so the midi editor is near useless.
Using the touch controls with pen would actually be fine if the menu would stay open after releasing the hold. Then you could click the item you want, drag the note handles to change duration and all that stuff. And to close the menu, simply clicking anywhere else on the interface could close it. It would effectively act like a right-click menu. I don't know why I didn't think of this before but this would make pen use much better, and maybe many people would prefer that for regular touch as well.
I've sent the request to Bitwig. If you agree with this please send in your requests as well.
Thanks!

I sent them a link to that same video. That issue was well described there. They acknowledged it at the time. It’s such an easily reproducible bug, sad to see it hasn’t been addressed.antic604 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 04, 2020 5:10 pmGood luck, fingers crossed they'll at least consider your request!Echoes in the Attic wrote: ↑Thu Jun 04, 2020 4:43 pmI've sent the request to Bitwig.

If that makes it more likely the problem will get fixed then I don't mindEchoes in the Attic wrote: ↑Thu Jun 04, 2020 8:49 pmBy the way, Bitwig support did ask me to leave the video up so they seemed to think it was mine.
