Project-wide engraving options for ties

You can find options for the project-wide appearance, position, and placement of ties on the Ties page in Engraving Options.

The options on the Ties page allow you to change the default curvature direction, shape, and appearance of ties, and the position of ties relative to noteheads and other ties in tie chains.

There are musical examples for many options to demonstrate how they affect the appearance of your music.

You can open Engraving Options in any of the following ways:

  • Press Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-E in any mode.

  • Choose Engrave > Engraving Options in Engrave mode.

You can then click Ties in the page list on the left of the dialog.
