How to slap a description on a group in clip view?

Post by wayfinder » Sun Aug 02, 2009 6:25 am

I grouped a few basslines and collapsed the group, like so:

How can I write a description into the striped-background clip slots? I can't create clips there, and I can't just rename the field itself, as far as I can tell...

I tried to look this up in the manual and on the forums again, I but I didn't find anything... Maybe I'm looking for the wrong keywords. Anyone have an idea? It seems like such a basic functionality!

Well, apparently it is currently impossible.

Can this thread be moved to the Feature Wishlist forum or would I have to create a new thread there?
