Particular Attributes of Certain Symbols
Certain symbols contain particular attributes:
• Crescendo: The tip determines the general position. At the upper-right end, length and
opening angle can be adjusted. At the lower-right end, length and overall angle can
be altered.
• Decrescendo: At the upper-left end, you can alter the bar position, and opening angle.
At the lower-left end, bar position, and overall angle can be set. At the tip (right end),
vertical position and length are adjusted.
• Lines and arrows: Can be moved (in their entirety) by dragging the start point. At the
other end, length and overall angle can be altered. The slanted line symbol denotes a
line that can be altered freely. The other two line objects (vertical and horizontal) can
only be extended in the corresponding direction.
• Slurs: Slurs have five editing points, used to change their shape. The last two slur
symbols in the slur group are mainly intended for slurs across staffs (in piano parts).
Note: These are slurs, not ties. Ties cannot be inserted manually, but are displayed
automatically if a MIDI note’s length requires it. For more information, see
Creating and
Editing Tied Notes in the Score Editor .
