IMO it makes little sense to have “select all patterns” and click drag multi-selection when the only option available is “unselect all patterns”

I understand patterns can be dragged to the DAW, but this seems a wasted opportunity to access useful pattern features, “clear selected patterns”, “duplicate selected patterns”, “reverse order of selected patterns”, etc. 🤷‍♂️

All of those sound like a good idea.
