The FTS behaviour around PXPos was not what you might expect...
But this has been made selectable in the current beta version, which I will
post the release build of this weekend.

Up to 3.1.005, FTS was applied *before* part transposition.
Which meant in effect the root note of the FTS scale was also being
transposed by PXPos.
i.e. notes in a pattern get forced to a pattern of intervals around the
root, then get moved up by the PXPos amount, so they now fit into the
pattern of intervals around the root plus the PXPos value.

In the next release (or current beta) you can choose whether PXPos is
applied before, or after FTS.
You do this by pressing FUNC+PXPos at the appropriate play mode page.
The PXPos value will be shown with an 'F' after it if it is pre-FTS.
