IWBNI it were possible to use the numeric keypad to jump to a given measure when the speedy entry tool is selected in scroll view.

This feature would simplify the task of changing the current measure when music is being entered in step time by using a MIDI keyboard with the speedy entry tool.

This could be implemented with the following functionality: In scroll view, if the current tool is the speedy entry tool but the speedy entry editing frame is not displayed, numbers that are pressed could be automatically directed to the Measure edit control. With this feature, one could perform the following operations from the numeric keypad: exit the speedy entry editing frame, jump to a given measure, and re-enter the speedy entry editing frame. For example, one could press: 0 to exit the speedy entry editing frame, 1 followed by 2 followed by the enter key to jump to measure number 12, and 0 to re-enter the speedy entry editing frame. Note: The last step in this sequence would be new functionality because as it is now, it is not possible to enter the speedy entry editing frame by pressing 0 after jumping to a new measure using the Measure edit control.
