Voices
For many instruments, such as flute or trombone, each staff usually contains a single musical line in a single voice that is read from left to right along the staff. When multiple, independent lines must be shown in a single staff, each line can be a separate voice.
Per-flow notation options for voices
You can find options controlling how notes in multiple voices are positioned in each flow independently on the Voices page in Notation Options.

Per-flow notation options for voices

You can find options controlling how notes in multiple voices are positioned in each flow independently on the Voices page in Notation Options.

The options on this page allow you to change the position and order of notes in multiple-voice contexts, and choose when noteheads in different voices can overlap.

Musical examples demonstrate how each option affects the appearance of your music.
