Per-flow notation options for voices

There are a number of options for how notes in multiple voices are positioned project-wide on the Voices page in Notation Options.

The options on this page allow you to change the position and order of notes in multiple-voice contexts, and choose when noteheads in different voices can overlap.

Musical examples demonstrate how each option affects the appearance of your music.

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

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

  • Choose Write > Notation Options in Write mode.

  • Choose Setup > Notation Options in Setup mode.

  • Click Notation Options on the right of the Flows panel in Setup mode.

You can then select Voices from the Category menu.
