Changing the style of artificial harmonics

By default, artificial harmonics appear as two noteheads: one normal, which indicates the stopped pitch, and one diamond, which indicates the touched pitch. You can change the style of artificial harmonics individually, for example, to indicate pinch harmonics.

Note

These steps only apply to harmonics with the Artificial type.

Prerequisite

If you are in Engrave mode, Graphic Editing is selected in the Engrave toolbox.

Procedure

  1. Select the artificial harmonics whose style you want to change. You can do this in Write mode and Engrave mode.
  2. In the Properties panel, activate Style in the Harmonics group.
  3. Select one of the following options from the menu:
    • Normal

    • Pinch

    • Single notehead (sounding)

    • Single notehead (stopped)

Result

The style of the selected artificial harmonics is changed.

Note

Pinch indicates the use of a different technique to produce the harmonic.
