Adding dedications in master pages

You can show dedications in multiple layouts by adding them to master pages. Dedications are usually shown above titles in scores, use a smaller font size than titles, and are shown in italics.

1. In Engrave mode, select the master page set containing the master page format to which you want to add a dedication from the Current set menu in the Master Pages section of the Pages panel.

   For example, if you want to add a dedication above titles in full score layouts, select Default Full Score.

2. Double-click the master page to which you want to add a dedication. For example, if you are using the default master pages, double-click First.

   The master page editor opens.

3. Open the text editor for the title text frame in any of the following ways:

   • Activate Frames in the Formatting panel, select the text frame, and press Return.

   • Double-click within the text frame.

4. Position the cursor at the start of the title token.
5. Press Return to input a new line above the title token.
6. Enter one of the following tokens in the new line above the title token:

   • {@flowDedication@} shows the dedication for the flow.

   • {@projectDedication@} shows the dedication for the whole project.

7. Optional: Change the appearance of the dedication text using the text editor options.
8. Close the text editor in any of the following ways:

   • Press Esc or Ctrl/Cmd-Return.

   • Click outside of the text editor.
