The diagram below shows the VMW looking into part of Voice 2.
Inside the VMW there is a white vertical band called the note cursor. This
marks the ‘current note’ - the one that can be edited or sounded. When
notes scroll past they sound when they reach the cursor column. When
flipping between voices the current note in the new voice is the one that
would have been playing at the same time as the current note in the
previous voice. If there wasn’t a note playing then it will go to the last note
in that voice. You can therefore flip easily between voices knowing that the
notes ‘line up’. The VMW also displays the appropriate key and time
signatures selected from Values.

many notes you can add to your tune before running out of space. It also

Info to see what the notepad size is.
Barmeter
The EDITOR barmeter indicates the overall length of each voice relative to
the others. Each voice is expanded to include all repeats. The barmeter
cursor shows you where you are within a tune and moves left and right as
you scroll backwards and forwards through a voice. The highlighted voice
