Creating grace notes manually
Procedure
- Locate the note for which you want a grace note.
- Insert one or more new notes just before it.
The note value and exact position of the note is not important. However, the pitch of course is.
From here on there are two ways to go:
Select the notes and open the Set Note Info dialog, either by double-clicking on one of the note heads or by clicking the “i” icon on the extended toolbar.
In the dialog, select the Grace note type.
Right-click on one of the notes and select “Convert to Grace Note” from the context menu.
This turns the note into a grace note without opening any dialog.
