Deleting accidentals from multiple notes

Deleting accidentals from multiple notes works in a similar way to deleting an accidental from an individual note, but more information is required for a selection that includes different types of accidentals.

1. In Write mode, select the group of notes whose accidentals you want to delete.

   • If the notes are adjacent, select the first note of the group, then Shift-click the last note of the group.

   • If the notes are separated by other notes, Ctrl/Cmd-click each note from which you want to remove an accidental individually.

2. Optional: For a selection including just one type of accidental, deactivate that accidental in one of the following ways:

   • Press 0 to delete naturals.

   • Press - to delete flats.

   • Press = to delete sharps.

   • Click the accidental in the Notes panel.

3. Optional: For a selection including multiple types of accidentals, click Natural in the Notes panel, or press 0.
   Note

   Re-inputting an accidental over a selection of notes, where multiple accidentals are being used, adds the accidental you choose to every note in the selection. For example, two G♯s followed by two G♭s become four G♯s if you re-input a sharp. If you click Sharp, or press =, twice more, all accidentals are deleted.

   Therefore, to delete accidentals from a selection with multiple accidentals, we recommend that you input a natural by clicking Natural in the Notes panel, or by pressing 0.
