Creating tablature
Editing
Tablature can be edited like any other score. You can
move notes, handle beaming, stem direction, etc.
Moving notes to another string
If you want for example a “C” to appear as a “8” on the low
E-string rather than a “3” on the A-string on a guitar, pro-
ceed as follows:
1. Select one note or a number of notes that you want to
move to a new string.
2. Right-click on one of the selected notes and, from the
“Move to String” submenu, select the desired string.
The Fret number is automatically adjusted according to the tuning of the
instrument (as set up on the Tablature tab on the Score Settings–Staff
page).
Moving notes
Moving notes in pitch in a tablature score is working the
same way as entering notes manually, see above.
Editing on the info line
Using the info line you can change the pitch of notes as
usual. The string and fret number will be updated automat-
ically in the score.
Note head shape
If you only want to enter a fret number for your notes (Tab-
lature mode off), you can use the Set Note Info dialog on
regular notes.
1. Double-click on the head of a note.
The Set Note Info dialog appears.
2. Activate the Tablature option and set a fret number in
the value field to the right.
The tablature settings in the Set Note Info dialog.
3. Click Apply.
