RESULT
During note input, clefs are input at the caret position. Note input continues after inputting the
clef, so you can continue inputting notes and clefs as required.
When you add clefs to existing music, clefs are added directly before a selected notehead, and
apply to all notes on that staff until the next clef, or the end of the ow.
Clefs apply to all notes on the staff until the next clef or the end of the ow, whichever comes
rst.

Inputting clefs with the panel
You can input clefs using the Clefs panel, both during note input and by adding them to existing
music.
NOTE
● In Dorico SE, you cannot hide clefs. Therefore, if you do not want to show any clef, you must
input an invisible clef.
● These steps describe inputting with the default mouse input preference Create item at
selection.
● Many instruments in Dorico SE have different types that show alternative clefs by default.
You can select the appropriate instrument type from the instrument picker when adding or
changing instruments.

● Start note input.
● Select an item at the rhythmic position where you want to input a clef.
