MIDI Export should have the same Range option as Audio Export

[Anthony Bennett]

I regularly need to export MIDI tracks to a file (essentially a MIDI 'stem'), that exactly matches the Start/End point of Audio stems I'm exporting.

I use Project Start and End markers by default in my projects.
When I export Audio stems, I have the Range option that lets me change from Entire project to a specific Range (defaulting to Start/End markers), and also custom Start/End.

I need the same capability on MIDI File Export.

Ideally, the same behaviour - a Range option that mimics the behaviour in the Audio Export.

Currently, the only way to achieve the desired result is a kludgy workaround of putting a 'dummy' MIDI event at the start point you want to export from.

OR

Export everything, re-open the exported MIDI file, trim space at start, re-save.

Just select the time range in the timeline before exporting. If you have Start and End Markers, you can use those to define the selection by various methods.
