Showing enclosures/underlines on fingerings

You can show individual fingerings belonging to non-fretted instruments with either a circle enclosure or an underline.

Note

These steps only apply to non-fretted instruments. For fretted instruments, you can instead show string indicators inside the staff, which are shown in a circle enclosure.

Procedure

  1. In Engrave mode, select the fingerings on which you want to show an enclosure/underline.
  2. In the Properties panel, activate Decoration in the Fingering and Positions group.
  3. Choose one of the following options:

    • Circle

    • Underline

Result

The selected fingerings are shown with the chosen decoration.
