Inputting slurs
You can input slurs, both during note input and by adding them to existing notes. You can also
add slurs to existing notes on multiple staves at the same time.
PROCEDURE
1. In Write mode, do one of the following:
● Start note input.
● Select the notes to which you want to add slurs.
TIP
● You can select notes on multiple staves and input slurs on them at the same time.
● If you only select a single note, the slur connects that note to the next note on the
staff.
2. Optional: If you want to input slurs onto multiple staves at once, extend the caret to those
staves.
3. Press S .
TIP
Alternatively, click Slur in the Notes panel, and then click and drag to input a slur and extend
it to your preferred length.
4. Optional: During note input, input the notes you want.
The slur extends automatically, even if there are rests between the notes you input.
5. Optional: During note input, press Shift-S to end the slur on the currently selected note.
