Chapter 6: Notation Window Enhancements 39
There is an option in the Leadsheet Window Options to allow you to display
the chords above each track, or just the top track of the notation.
To revert to a single track of notation, simply click
on a track without holding the [Ctrl] key down.
Section Text and Boxed Text
You can now add custom text messages at any position in the notation track,
with optional box to appear around the text.
To put a section text comment on the notation track:
-
Open up the notation window, and press the [N] button to enable
editable notation.
-
Right click on the track at the point that you want to enter the section text.
-
Answer YES to the question “Would you like to enter Section Text?”
This launches the Text Event dialog box, that allows you to type in the Text.
You can set the Text type to “Boxed” or “Regular.”
More Notation Window Enhancements
There is a
SCRUB mode
allowing you to move the mouse over a group of
notes and hear them playing. You can
select any font for the chords, lyrics,
text and titles
, and choose the music font (Jazz or regular) chords. Beamed
notes will now auto-display with
slanted beams
. Groups of
5 notes will
automatically display as groups of 3+2 or 2+3
, and can be set this way
manually as well. If notes are displayed high above the treble clef, the
chords
will move higher so as not to overwrite the notes
.
