Description:
Currently, radio buttons can be used to switch between multiple instruments or effects, for example when assigning a single MIDI keyboard to multiple tracks. However, these buttons lack the ability to handle long press actions for deeper interaction.
Problem:
While radio buttons allow switching between instruments, there is no way to assign a long press to open related interfaces (e.g. instrument or effect panels). This limits workflow efficiency and forces users to rely on separate buttons or indirect navigation.
Proposed Solution:
  • Enable long press functionality for radio buttons.
  • Allow users to assign alternate actions (such as opening an effect or instrument UI) to long press events on the same control.
  • Ensure backward compatibility with existing button behavior for short presses.
Benefits:
  • Reduces UI clutter by enabling more actions with fewer buttons.
  • Improves performance workflow for setups involving multiple instruments or effects.
  • Enhances flexibility for custom control schemes using external MIDI hardware.

Long Press on Radio Buttons
I set up radio buttons to use one MIDI keyboard for multiple instruments. Each instrument ultimately needed its own button, but I couldn’t assign a long press to open the effect or instrument interface—which would have been very useful. Please consider adding long press functionality to radio buttons for switching.
