Resetting condensing changes from rhythmic positions

You can reset changes you have made to condensing to your per-flow defaults, including resetting only selected notation options, from selected rhythmic positions onwards in individual layouts.

Procedure

  1. In the music area, open the layout in which you want to reset condensing changes.
  2. In Engrave mode, select an item at the rhythmic position where you want to reset condensing.
    Tip

    The item does not have to be on a condensed staff. Only a single condensing change can exist at a rhythmic position but you can change or reset options for multiple staves.

  3. Choose Engrave > Condensing Change to open the Condensing Change dialog.
  4. In the condensing groups list, activate the checkbox for each condensing group you want to include in the condensing change.

    Including condensing groups starts new phrases from the selected rhythmic position.

  5. Select a condensing group whose condensing you want to reset.
    Note

    You can only change or reset options for a single selected condensing group at a time.

  6. Reset condensing in one of the following ways:
    • To reset a previous change to condensing options: In the Notation Options section, activate each option you want to reset and choose Reset.

    • To reset a previous manual condensing change: In the Manual Condensing section, activate Condensing Approach and choose Reset.

  7. Optional: Repeat steps 5-6 for each condensing group whose condensing you want to reset.
  8. Click OK to save your changes and close the dialog.

Result

The condensing result is reset to follow your per-flow notation options for the activated options, or entirely for manual condensing changes. This applies from the selected rhythmic position onwards until the next existing condensing change or the end of the flow, whichever comes first.

A signpost is shown at the position of the condensing change.
