Guitar bends
The guitar bend is a technique commonly performed on electric guitars, where the performer pushes strings out of their normal alignment after notes start to sound. Bending strings tightens them, which produces the characteristic pitch fluctuation.
Moving guitar bends, pre-bends/pre-dives, post-bends, holds, and vibrato bar dives and returns graphically
You can move individual guitar bends, pre-bends/pre-dives, post-bends, holds, and vibrato bar dives/returns graphically. You can move each handle independently, meaning you can also adjust their shape and graphical length. You can do this for the current layout and frame chain only or for all layouts and frame chains.
Guitar post-bends in Engrave mode
In Engrave mode, each guitar post-bend has multiple handles that you can move independently to adjust their graphical position and shape on notation staves and tablature independently.

Guitar post-bends in Engrave mode

In Engrave mode, each guitar post-bend has multiple handles that you can move independently to adjust their graphical position and shape on notation staves and tablature independently.

On both notation staves and tablature, guitar post-bends have the following handles:

Guitar post-bend start handle
Guitar post-bend middle handle
Guitar post-bend end handle
Bend interval handle

You can move these handles to change the shape of guitar post-bends and move bend intervals. When you move guitar post-bend end handles, the bend interval also moves to retain its position relative to the end handle.
