This is my job.

Compose: Grab/drag note, preview audio plays only in columns overlapping resident notes

.

~~~~~

.

On the Compose screen, at the notes editing view - the user can 'Grab' and drag a note around the grid. While doing so, preview audio for the dragged note will play - this may be to provide the user a better idea of where to drop the note. However, the preview audio plays only when the dragged note occupies the same column as another note.

1. At the Compose screen,

2. Highlight the 'Open Song' hotspot and activate it.

3. Choose 'New Song' and load a blank song.

4. Highlight the track editing console and activate it.

5. Click on any track cell and choose 'Edit Notes'.
6. At the note editing grid, place at least two separate notes -

(Observe the audio which plays as the notes are placed).
7. Point the cursor over each of the notes, one at a time -

(Observe the audio which plays during mouse-over).
8. 'Grab' one of the notes and move it around the grid without releasing it.
.
Notice: If a dragged note (Note 'A') occupies a column containing a resident note (Note 'B'), Audio pitched for the current position of Note 'A' will play. (But only if Note 'A' is wider than Note 'B')
.
Frequency: 100%

.

Expected Result: The correct, expected functionality is not obvious in this case.
.
1) It's possible that preview audio is not intended to play for floating notes that have not yet been placed.

.

2) If preview audio should play before a note is dropped into its new position, it should always play the audio - whether it occupies the same column as existing notes or not.
