I would try adding another menu item to rosegarden for "Toggle
Metronome" and connecting that to
RosegardenMainWindow::slotToggleMetronome(). That might do exactly what
you want. No guarantees, but worth a try.
(BTW, I've moved this over to the devel list as it is more of a
development issue. Please subscribe if you aren't already and continue
the discussion here if needed.)

Hi Ted, thanks for your response and thanks for the pointer, I'll have a
look at that.
I also ran into another thing: there is a "metronome" key on the
controller that, in supported software, could turn the metronome on or
off. But I suppose that requires a bit more work, as I could only find
metronome settings in a dialog to turn them on for playback and/or
recording. I guess a toggle button wouldn't work here anyway (unless it
would cycle through all the operations. Or keep it simpler and just turn
it on/off, honouring the setting in the dialog, i.e. if it was only
enabled for recording, to only toggle that. The latter seems the most
straight-forwards and user friendly but implementing that would be the
most tricky. What are your thoughts about that? (If you would say that
it could b confuse users too much, then telling me for now to ignore the
metronome button is an entirely valid suggestion.)
As far as I can tell right now, those were the only two operations that
I couldn't yet map to an actual action and as the tool is configured
with a mapping configuration file, any new shortcuts that will be
implemented in the future can simply be added to that file, but it would
be awesome to at least have the "S" implemented in the first version.
Best regards,
Hugo

Just follow the pattern in RosegardenMainWindow::slotToggleMute().
We'll try to get this in after 23.06 ships. Unless you want to give it
a shot. Feel free to open a feature request as that will help us
track it.
