Adapting the duration of the next rest

ToolbarIcon
NoteOption to adapt the next rest duration

In the default mode of editing, when you add a note, if the next item is a rest, it will change its duration to the one of the previously added note. It is the "default" behavior as it can be useful in many contexts, like when you are inputting a group of 8th notes in the context of a 4/4 meter.

Adapt next rest duration

You can disable this behavior if you want, so the system doesn't resize the duration of the next rest.

Keep the duration of the next rest
