Grid selection on the editing timeline.

[al]

is there any way to turn on grid selection on the timeline/graphic editor? I'd like to make a selection from the first beat to the third 16th on the fourth beat.
It seems grid selection is stuck to beats only.
thanks

You can select snap to 16ths in the tracks window. Alternatively you can use set selection or drag carefully within the graphic editor.

That's exactly what I was talking about. But it needs to be on the graphic editor. Most sequencers have it that way (even up to 1/64th grid editing). it's kind of drag (and counter-intuitive) to switch back and forth just for selection, and you don't even see the selection until you click on the graphic editor window.

Do you think you could incorporate that on the next release?

Well I am not sure how something like that would be implemented in Metro. Perhaps you should clarify the details of how you imagine it working.

Have you tried doing the edits in 'Drum bar' mode? That has an auto-quantize selection feature.

no editing involved yet. we're talking just selection, highlighting of notes, or audio.
I'd like my selections to snap to grid. The same behavior on the tracks window, but on the graphic editor.

In other sequencers you're able to do this right on the editing window. Look at PT's grid mode and you'd now what I'm talking about.
