Hi,
I would like to propose a feature request, mainly regarding PADS, hot cues and POIs of a type Action.
I am fascinated by the possibility of the ability setting POIs with custom Actions.
What I want to achieve is having a way to have set of actions tied to a certain song.
It seems I can have that thanks to the Action type POIs, but the usage is very limited.
Even though the POI is set to type Action, it can not be triggered from the PADS. Normally we have an action for calling this POI by "hot_cue X", but this does also move the playhead position in the song to the time where this POI is set. Plus I must say, the action is sometimes triggered, sometimes not when I press the pad with an action "hot_cue X" for a POI of type "Action". When a playhead runs over the point, it triggers every time, but not when triggered from a pad.
I have propositions for integration of my desired behavior, which is having a per song Action cues triggerable without chaning play position in the song.
1) As we are allowed to set the Action for a POI with 'cue_action X "action"', let us also read and reuse this value such as when using cue_name.
2) Let us decide if the Action POI triggers on every pad press (mayb this is just a glitch?) and if it's trigger actually move the play position as it does with hot_cue or not.
3) A better option I was not able to come up with.
This would help me very much.
Thank you for the consideration, devs!

most likely you are pressing pad a fraction late and quantise is jumping to just after the cue, therefore not hitting the cue and not calling the action.
