Re: [Lmms-users] Possible changes in the old pdf manual

[Raindrops F. S. <rai...@gm...>]

*Hi Stian,*

*@Piano Editor as BB Editor*
Interesting point, Stian! I will definitely include this "workaround".

*@Blue notes ("Worried notes"):*
I have raised this issue in a separate post. When I posted the first mail,
I thought that a neat workaround existed. But then I realized that it is
not possible because of a limitation in the LMMS design, and posted a
follow-up message almost immediately.

To sum up, IMHO the present design of LMMS does not allow us to create the
blue notes that are so essential to the Blues/Jazz.

Regards,
Narayan
