previous accidentals in the bar are taken into account. The notename for a
rest is blank.
Entering and playing notes - a quick guide
The Editor is a very powerful composing tool with many facilities. This
section is intended as an introduction - as you become more familiar with
the basic commands you can launch yourself into the advanced editing
facilities, set up the user parameters from Values, attack macros and get to
grips with the notepad… adjust barlines… clock tidy… etc.
Notes are always entered directly on the treble and bass staves at the note
cursor. If there are no notes in the voice the current note is shown in blue.
If there are notes already there, you may delete all notes by accessing
