D.S., D.C., Segno, Coda Signs

These symbols can be inserted at any position in the score. They are graphic symbols,
and do not affect MIDI playback. Their size can be changed with the Sizing tool.

Tempo and Swing Symbols

These symbols can be inserted at any position. The font, size, and style of the tempo
indicator itself is determined in the Text Style (see “Text Styles” on page 425) window
(Text Style Tempo Symbols). The tempo indicator is derived automatically from the
playback tempo at the corresponding bar position. Note that the tempo indicators in
the Transport window (see “The Transport Window” on page 73) and the Tempo List
(see “Tempo List Editor” on page 448) alwa
ys refer to quarter notes, even if a time
signature with another denominator is used. As such, the displayed tempo differs,
depending on the symbol being used.
