Changing the staff-relative placement of slash region counts

You can show the counts on individual slash regions either above or below the staff, independently of your project-wide setting. You can do this for the current layout and frame chain only or for all layouts and frame chains.
Note

Changing the staff-relative placement of slash region counts affects all counts on the region. You cannot change the placement of a single count independently of other counts on the same slash region.

Prerequisite

You have chosen the appropriate property scope for local properties.

Procedure

  1. Select any part of each slash region whose count staff-relative placement you want to change.
  2. In the Properties panel, activate Count position in the Slash Regions group.
  3. Choose one of the following options:
    • Above

    • Below

Result

The staff-relative placement of all counts on the selected slash regions is changed. If the property scope was set to Locally, this change only takes effect in the current layout and frame chain.

Tip

You can change the default placement of all slash region counts project-wide in the Rhythmic slashes section of the Notes page in Engrave > Engraving Options.
