Importing MIDI to selected tracks

Hi,

I recently found out that, if you have tracks selected when you try to import an external media file, an additional option appears to have the imported media be put in the tracks you selected, instead of creating new tracks.

When I tried it with MIDI, though, it didn’t work as expected: more specifically, I chose a MIDI file to import and expected the data to be set on the tracks I selected, but what happened was that all the tracks from the MIDI file ended up on the first Ardour tracki instead.

I guess that, in the current implementation, the “to selected tracks” only maps different files to the different tracks I selected? Meaning that this would work if I had, let’s say, 20 MIDI files, instead of a single MIDI with 20 tracks? Or am I simply doing something wrong?

Thanks!
