Engrave mode
Engrave mode allows you to manipulate and modify every item in your project, but without deleting them, moving them rhythmically, or changing the pitch of notes. You can also determine how the pages in each layout of your project are formatted for printing or exporting.
Graphic slices
Graphic slices allow you to export portions of pages as graphics files; for example, to save small musical extracts for use in performance instructions. They exist as fixed frames on specific pages, and function in a similar way to frames.
Moving graphic slices
You can move individual graphic slices around pages after they have been created.
