Add and edit text
Add text to a score in Logic Pro
You can use text objects in the Part box to add standard text (text other than lyrics,
automatic text, or global text). The basic functions for moving the pointer, deleting parts of
the text, and so on, are the same as they are for most text-editing apps.
You can also use text objects (with a music symbol font) to add and position music symbols
anywhere in the score, free of the rhythmic constraints of MIDI notes.
Add text to the score
1. Select a text object in the Part box.
2. Do one of the following:
• Drag the text object where you want it to appear in the score.
• Select the Text tool (or use the Set Text Tool key command), then click the position
where you want the text to appear.
An insertion point appears at the target position. (If you choose one of the automatic
text objects, the corresponding text for that object is inserted automatically.)
3. Enter your text.
As long as you’re in Text Entry mode (indicated by the blinking insertion point), you can
click any position in the text field. You can select parts of the text by dragging the pointer
in the text field, and cut, copy, and paste text. Press Return, or click anywhere outside the
text field, to exit Text Entry mode.
