I'd be happy to :). Virtual patterns are a way of conveniently building up 
composite patterns. For example, you have a song in which patterns 2, 7, and 12 
are always played together every two bars, so, every two bars you select their 
patterns in the song matrix. 

Alternately, you can create a new pattern and using the virtual patterns 
feature, have this new pattern implicitly invoke patterns 2, 7, and 12 whenever 
it's set. This way, I only need to set one pattern every two bars instead of 
three (for this example).

To access virtual patterns, right click (context menu) on the label for an 
existing pattern and there should be a virtual patterns option. This'll bring 
up a small dialog that lets you toggle which patterns are to be in the virtual 
pattern set. Also, this is a recursive process, so virtual patterns can use 
other virtual patterns.

Hi Chris
maybe i'm the only one that does not quite know what virtual patterns are, so 
could you briefly explain a bit ?thanks!

I just wanted to quickly mention that this square colouring feature interacts 
with the virtual pattern feature (which also alters the colours of the affected 
pattern squares).




It's probably not too hard to work with, but my code would need to be altered 
to shade based on the pattern colour instead of assuming a blue.
