Showing modifiers centered inside hairpins

You can show modifiers you have added to hairpins, such as poco a poco or molto, centered both horizontally and vertically inside hairpins. You can do this for the current layout and frame chain only or for all layouts and frame chains. By default, modifiers appear at the start of and either above or below hairpins.

Prerequisite

You have chosen the appropriate property scope for local properties.

Procedure

  1. Select the hairpins whose modifiers you want to show centered inside hairpins.
  2. In the Properties panel, activate Modifier position in the Dynamics group.
  3. Choose one of the following options:
    • Above or Below

    • Inside

Result

Modifiers on the selected hairpins appear centered inside the hairpins. They automatically erase their background so the text does not collide with the hairpin lines. If the property scope was set to Locally, this change only takes effect in the current layout and frame chain.
