Midi: Piano roll editor - deselect failure
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Set the mouse modifier
--> context: MIDI piano roll
--> mouse-action: left click
--> to: "*Deselect all notes".
Now do this: Open the piano roll editor, draw some notes, select
some of these notes, for instance with "right click marquee-select".
Then "left click" into the piano roll editor at the empty space between
the notes. You'll realize: Not a single note gets deselected!
Reaper Version 5.79/64, no SWS, Windows-10/64
Can somebody please confirm?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is there a workaround?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes, you can instead "left click" at the parameter space
below (at the "cc-lane). All notes get deselected.
Of course you can "<alt>+left click" for deselection also.

But ...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
... it is a little annoying for me. I am accustomed to this plain
mouse behaviour (from Logic and Cubase), and first I thought:
"Hey, you can set this mouse-behaviour in Reapers preferences".
But it doesn't work! It would be so much finer if the deselection
would work with a pure left click only.
I know there's a "bestiary" of midi bugs ...
