Edit notes with the mouse
If you move the mouse over a note, the mouse cursor will change and, depending on
the part of the note, the following options will be available:
Change note start time (Grab note bar at the beginning, note end
remains the same)
Change note length (Grab note length at end)
+ Shift
Set fixed note length for multi-selection: Hold "Shift" and drag the
current reference note longer/shorter – all notes will have the same
length
+ Ctrl
Scale note length for multi-selection: Hold "Ctrl" and drag current
reference note longer – all notes will be lengthened by the same factor
Move note freely, pitch and start time change
If in "Move" mode "Alt" is also pressed, the note will only be moved
horizontally, retain pitch (in free move mode, hold "Alt")
If "Shift" is pressed while in "Free draw" mode, only the pitch can be
changed, the position will remain the same.
/
"Ranges for limited moving": If you activate this setting in the
"Options" menu, clicking and dragging in the start portion of the note
only results in a change to the position, while clicking on the end
portion changes the pitch.
