pears. Drag right to shorten the notes, or drag
left to lengthen them.
If the Edit mode is set to Grid, the dragged start
or end point snaps to the nearest Grid bound-
ary. If the Edit mode is set to Spot, the Spot dia-
log opens, where you can enter the new location
for the note’s start or end point.
Notes can also be trimmed with the
Trim Region
to Selection
command (see “Trim to Selection
Command” on page 500) and the Trim To Inser-
tion
