User manual

A correctly input caesura. The dotted guidelines are
attached to the notehead after the barline, meaning
the caesura is correctly positioned before the
barline.
An incorrectly input caesura. By clicking to the left of
the barline, the caesura is attached to the last eighth
note in the bar.
When input correctly, the dotted guidelines link the caesura to the notehead immediately after
the barline.
If your dotted guidelines do not link the caesura to the notehead immediately after the barline,
delete the caesura and re-input it. Caesuras can cause spacing issues when input incorrectly.
