Inputting arpeggio signs with the popover
You can input arpeggio signs using the ornaments popover, both during note input and by
adding them to existing notes.
You can also input arpeggio signs across notes in multiple voices
and on different staves that belong to the same instrument, such as piano or harp.
NOTE
You can only input one arpeggio sign at a time.
PROCEDURE
1. In Write mode, do one of the following:
Start note input.
Select at least one note in each voice to which you want to add an arpeggio sign.
NOTE
For instruments with multiple staves, such as piano and harp, you can select existing
notes on multiple staves to create cross-staff arpeggio signs. However, you cannot
create cross-staff arpeggio signs between different instruments.
Arpeggio signs are added to all notes in the selected voices at the selected rhythmic
position.
2. If you started note input, press Q to start chord input.
NOTE
You can only input arpeggio signs during chord input.
3. Press Shift-O to open the ornaments popover.
4. Enter the appropriate entry for the arpeggio sign you want into the popover.
For example, enter arpup for an up arpeggio sign or enter arpdown for a down arpeggio
sign.
5. Press Return to close the popover.
6. Optional: During chord input, input the notes you want.
RESULT
During chord input, arpeggio signs are input at the caret position.
When adding arpeggio signs to existing notes, they are input to the left of the selected notes.
Arpeggio signs automatically span the pitch range of all notes at that rhythmic position in the
current voice during chord input, and all notes in the selected voices/staves when adding
arpeggio signs to existing notes.
