The Proximity assistant uses a set of harmonic rules, in order to offer you suggestions that match the reference chord.
If you open the Chord Assistant for a chord event, the previous event is set as reference chord.
The reference chord is displayed at the bottom, in the center of the Chord Assistant window. The further away a chord suggestion is situated from this chord, the more complex the suggestion.
