These parameters work relatively to a particular scoring situation, which is why no
explicit instructions on settings can be given. Again, it is essential to try different
combinations when working on the final layout of a piece.

“Open” Single Staves

Displays single staves without vertical lines at their start point (left side of the clef ).

Justify Last Staff

Lengthens the last line (the last staff system, in full scores) to the right page margin.

Hide Muted Sequences/Tracks

Excludes muted Regions, or Regions on muted tracks, from the score display. If these
options are not activated, muted tracks and Regions will be displayed in the score, even
though they won’t be heard during MIDI playback.

Show Alias

Switches the display of alias objects (see “Aliases in the Score Display” on page 333) in
the score on or off.

Allow Alias Editing

Switches Alias Editing (see “Aliases in the Score Display” on page 333) on or off.

Alternate Repeat Symbols

If this option is activated, all repeat signs in the song will be displayed with “Real Book
Style” brackets.

Chord Symbol Language

This pull-down menu allows you to choose between

International: default

German1: B

“H”, Bb

“B”

German2: B

“H”, Bb

“Bb”

German3: C#

“Cis”, Eb

“Es” etc…

Roman: CDEFGAB

Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti

In all Chord Symbol Language formats, the current format is also accepted for the input
of new chords. The “#”, “b”, “x” and “bb” characters are also active in the German3 mode,
allowing for quick entry. In the Roman format, the second root string character can be
omitted (typing “D7” or “Do7” in Roman mode will both result in “Do 7”). Changing the
Chord Language automatically affects all chord symbols in the song. It is not possible
to mix chord languages.
