[RWP] Inline Midi Editor Works, but not on Events, only on Items

Hi David,
I got a method for editing midi events with N V D A in 64 bit Reaper, a 
bit complex, but maybe some better NVDA user can simplify it.
David, after going through your first 3 steps as in System Access, I end 
up being able to select the note positions along the time line with 
up/down arrows, but can't edit.
I found a way, with an extra step, ctrl+F2; that displays the note event 
list to the tab key, with edit boxes at the arrow keys, as follows:
1. select track with up down arrows.
2. select item with ctrl+shift+right arrow
3.Open built in editor with ctrl+alt+E
4. Go to view submenu with alt+V
5. select Mode Event List
6. In NVDA, up or down arrow to the particular note event you want to 
edit, you will hear a readout of position, length, velocity, etcetera.
7. Press ctrl+F2 for Event Properties, and you get the list of events 
for that position along the time line at the tab key, with edit boxes at 
the arrow keys.
8. Press escape, and you can now move to another note position with up 
down arrows.
9. Press ctrl+F2 again, and you again have all the note events at the 
tab key, as for the previous note event list.
Once you have selected Mode Event list in the View SubMenu, it remains 
selected throughout all the other steps.
Yea, issue solved!
Thanks,
Indigo L
