Changing the properties of individual items in Engrave mode

You can view and change the properties of notes and notations.

Tip

You can change the default appearance and position of all notes and notations project-wide in Engraving Options.

Procedure

  1. Select a note, notation, or individual parts of them in the music area.
  2. Show the Properties panel in any of the following ways:
    • Press Ctrl/Cmd-8.

    • Click the disclosure arrow at the bottom of the window.

    • Choose Window > Show Bottom Panel.

  3. Change the properties that you want.

Result

The changes are immediately displayed in the music area.

Note

Properties are layout-specific. For example, if you change the placement of an item relative to the staff in a full score layout, this does not affect the placement of the item in the corresponding part layout.
