Editing the figured bass font styles

You can edit the formatting of the font styles used for all figured bass figures project-wide; for example, if you want them to appear larger by default.

Note

These steps do not apply to tasto solo indications, which use the Figured Bass Tasto Solo paragraph style.

Procedure

  1. Choose Library > Font Styles to open the Edit Font Styles dialog.
  2. In the font styles list, select one of the following font styles:

    • Figured Bass Font: Used for bold figured bass figures

    • Figured Bass Text Font: Used for plain figured bass figures

  3. Activate the following options, individually or together, to change the corresponding aspect of the font:

    • Font family

    • Size

    • Style

    • Underlined

    Note

    You must choose a SMuFL-compliant font family for the Figured Bass Font font style.

  4. Optional: If you selected Figured Bass Font, activate Substitutes and change its substitute fonts as required.
  5. Click OK to save your changes and close the dialog.

Result

The formatting of the selected figured bass font style is changed project-wide.
