To lock Part box group positions:
m Choose View > Partbox > Lock Group Positions.
Choose the command a second time to unlock group positions.
To show only the symbols of the currently selected group in the Part box:
m Disable the View > Part box > Show All Groups setting.
Selecting Part Box Objects
You can select any Part box object (a note, slur, clef, or whatever) by simply clicking on
it. If a particular object group isn’t visible in the Part box, click on the corresponding
square in the group menu to move the desired object group to the top of the panel.
To select an object directly from the group menu:
m Click-hold on one of the squares that represent the Part box groups, and choose the
desired object from the shortcut menu that appears.
To open a small Part box group window:
m Double-click on one of the group menu squares.
This opens a small floating window that contains all objects in the group. This palette
window can be freely moved. Objects can be dragged directly from palette windows
into any position in the score. You can simultaneously open as many palette windows
as needed.
Note: Unlike the regular Part box, the selected object is not highlighted in the palette
windows.
