Engrave mode
Engrave mode allows you to manipulate and modify every item in your project, but without deleting them, moving them rhythmically, or changing the pitch of notes. You can also determine how the pages in each layout of your project are formatted for printing or exporting.
Note spacing
The positions of notes and rests relative to each other, and the automatic gaps between them, are known as note spacing.
Changing note spacing from rhythmic positions
You can change note spacing values from selected rhythmic positions onwards in individual layouts, including changing the scale factor for grace notes and cues.
