Trills, Tremolo, and so on

The symbols in this group can be positioned anywhere, and are not attached to notes.
The trill line and arpeggio lines can be set to any length, by dragging their end points.
The trill line can also span line breaks.

The accidental symbols in this Part box group are purely graphical, and do not affect
the MIDI playback of notes. They are mainly intended as a supplement to trill symbols.

Rests, Bar Repeat Signs

Rests are displayed automatically in Logic Express. The way this works is pretty
straightforward: existing notes and automatic rests always add up to complete bars,
that match the given time signature.

Note: The only exception to this is when a staff style with a deactivated rest display
(Hide Rest) or with beat slashes (instead of rests) is used.

In certain situations, you might want to insert rests manually. These manually inserted
rests (also called user rests) can be used if you don’t like the way a particular automatic
rest is displayed. See “

Creating and Inserting Rests

” on page 735.
