Note: The symbols in this Part box group can affect the velocity and playback length of
notes they are assigned to.

Slurs and Crescendi Objects in the Part Box
These symbols are graphic only, and have no impact on MIDI playback.
To insert a slur or crescendi object
1 Drag the object to the intended (left) starting point.
After insertion, the object remains selected, and small black square handles are visible at
its end points (or along its length, in the case of slurs).
2 Drag these handles to change the object’s shape.
You can also use several key commands to quickly input slurs, crescendo, and decrescendo
symbols. For details on these, and editing options, see
Editing Slurs and Crescendi in the
Score Editor .
