Moving notes rhythmically

You can move notes, including grace notes, to different rhythmic positions along staves after they have been input.

Procedure

  1. In Write mode, select the notes you want to move.
  2. Move the selected notes according to the current rhythmic grid value in any of the following ways:

    • Press Alt-Right Arrow to move them to the right.

    • Press Alt-Left Arrow to move them to the left.

Result

The selected notes are moved to new rhythmic positions according to the current rhythmic grid value. If you selected multiple notes, they are moved together as a block.

Notes are automatically positioned according to their rhythmic duration and position relative to other notes.

Note

If Chords is not activated and any of your selected notes collide with other notes in the same staff and at the same rhythmic position that are in the same voice as your selected notes, the existing notes are deleted and replaced with your selected notes.
