Note Heads
If you drag one of these symbols onto a note (watch the help tag: the destination note
must be indicated there), the form of its note head changes to that of the selected
symbol. If multiple notes are selected first, dragging the notehead onto any one of the
notes will cause it to be attached to all notes in the selection. These note heads do not
affect MIDI playback.
If you want an altered note to have a standard note head again, use the same method,
this time using the black round note head.
Invisible Note Heads
Using the grey note head will make a note’s head and associated ties invisible. On the
screen this note is displayed with a grey notehead, so that it can still be edited. In the
printout however, nothing will be visible, except the stem.
If you combine this with Attributes > Stem > Hide, you can hide notes in the printout
altogether.
Symbols attached to Notes
(Fermatas, accents, phrasing symbols, mute, and bow markings, and so on)
This group contains symbols which usually refer to only one note at a time (Trills,
however, are in a separate group). These symbols are positioned automatically, as soon
as they are assigned to a note. You do this by dragging the symbol onto the note head
(watch the help tag to ensure accurate placement). These symbols always move along
with the notes they belong to, whether they are transposed or otherwise graphically
altered.
