That's easily fixed: create the chord just once and in the
View->Palettes menu choose "Create a Button for Chord Type"
Thereafter you can invoke the chord on any bass note with a keystroke or
mouse click or two.

If you do augment the palette, please send it to the mailing list for
inclusion in the next release. The ones that are there are just those
that Dominic needed.
