A complement to this would be something that has been requested before: A shortkey that bypasses snap while held and gives you the ability to position the note exactly where you want it with no regard to snap(maybe this was what tripleWEE meant by ALT+drag, "vegas style"?So to enter notes at 960 ppqn, is it possible to enter the note position numerically, ie. by highlighting the note whose position is to be shifted (possibly zooming in for this) and then typing the position of the note in?
Alt+drag is also used in Logic and Cubase). This would mean that you just zoom in to the level of resolution you need, press the key (ALT for example?) and just drag the note to the exact position where you want it. Entering the position numerically would be neat since it gives you a very good precision and exact information about the note position (this is especially useful in the audio part editor where you need to know exactly where a waveform begins, for example when making arrangements). However, this feature would only be beneficial if you know - and have a feel for - where the note/waveform is situated numerically. If you don't know this (typically when you're quickly writing down notes in a midi part), just dragging the note would be more simple. At least more simple than finding out the numerical position of the note, the numerical difference between to positions at the zoom level where you're at and then concluding how much you need to add/subtract to the current note position value.
Just my humble opinion
