Changing the allocated string for notes on tablature
You can change the string to which individual notes are allocated on tablature manually, for
example, if you input the notes on the notation staff and want to change their default string
allocation.
NOTE
You cannot allocate notes to a string on which they are impossible, such as if the note is lower
than the open pitch of the string.
PROCEDURE
1. On tablature, select the fret numbers of notes whose allocated string you want to change.
NOTE
You must select fret numbers on tablature, you cannot select the notes on notation staves.
2. Change their allocated string in any of the following ways:
To move them up a string, press N .
To move them down a string, press M .
In the Properties panel, select a string from the String menu in the Notes and Rests
group.
RESULT
The string to which the selected notes are allocated is changed. Using the key commands
changes the string of the selected notes proportionally, whereas selecting a string from the
String menu allocates all selected notes to the selected string.

If they are now allocated to the same string as another note at that rhythmic position, both
notes appear beside each other and are colored green.
