The rulers

Unlike other editors, the Score Editor does not have a meter/time position-based ruler. Instead, its rulers are “graphical”, that is, they indicate the actual x-y position of objects (with “zero” at the upper left corner).

  • The current pointer position is indicated by thin lines in the rulers.

  • To hide the rulers, right-click on a ruler and select “Off”.

    This pop-up menu can also be found above the scrollbar at the far right.

  • To display the ruler again, open the pop-up menu above the scrollbar at the far right and select one of the units (inches, centimeters, or points).

    This setting also affects the units used in the Position Info window.
