Inputting vibrato bar indications/lines with the panel

You can input vibrato bar indications/lines using the Ornaments panel, both during note input and by adding them to existing music. When vibrato bar indications are input across a range of items, they are input with duration and show a duration line, which is dashed by default.

Procedure

  1. In Write mode, do one of the following:
    • Start note input.

    • Select an item on the staff and at the rhythmic position where you want to input a vibrato bar indication. If you want to input a vibrato bar line, select items on the staff that span the required duration.

  2. In the Notations toolbox, click Panels Panels button, then Ornaments Ornaments button to show the Ornaments panel.
  3. In the Guitar section, click Vibrato Bar Line .

Result

During note input, vibrato bar indications are input at the caret position.

When adding vibrato bar indications to a single selected item, they are input at that rhythmic position only and have no duration. When adding vibrato bar indications to a range of selected items, they are input at the rhythmic position of the earliest selected item and have duration, which applies until the end of the selection. Vibrato bar indications with duration show a duration line, which is dashed by default.

By default, vibrato bar indications/lines are placed below the staff and only appear on notation staves, not tablature.
