Long-Press Flags, with listing!
#1
Hi, MobileSheets friends!  This feature request comes from needing a digital equivalent to sticking a sticky note as a flag while running/playing a piece, in order to come back and fix/work after.  I direct bands, and this is something we do ALL the time.  Anyone rehearsing ensembles would love this functionality. (Crucially, it also needs to sync/merge between two connected devices along with the annotation sync/merge that Mike is implementing sometime)

The functionality would be a LONG-PRESS that simply places a predetermined flag of some kind (I guess the shape, color, transparency could be adjustable.) No typing is necessary, and the action would NOT take you into annotation mode.  Crucially it would be ONE single action (long-press would be best, I think) that can be done while playing and advancing pages as normal, and you can have multiple flags per page.  Each flag pressed on then gets added to a flags listing, just like bookmarks, listed in page order.  After running the piece, the conductor/musician could pop up the listing and navigate back to the dropped flag, work/fix, then delete the flag.  (Bookmarks take way too much typing and pressing to accomplish while conducting/playing.. Plus you can only have one bookmark per page.)

I'd love to get some support to this, as it is the ONE thing we conductors can do with paper, that we can't do with digital.  Combined with annotation sync/merge for two connected tablets, well, it could be exactly what the busy ensemble director needs!

Let us know if you'd use this!  And thanks!

I can add that as a feature request for the future. The priority will be dictated somewhat by how many other users request it, so that I know how many users will benefit from it.
