Changing the number of segments in individual slurs

You can change the number of segments in individual slurs, for example, to allow you to create

slurs with unusual shapes.

PROCEDURE

1. In Engrave mode, select the slurs whose number of segments you want to change.

2. In the Properties panel, activate Number of segments in the Slurs group.

3. Change the value in the value eld in any of the following ways:

● Enter a value into the value eld.

● Click the arrows beside the value eld.

RESULT

Increasing the value increases the number of slur segments. Decreasing the value decreases the

number of slur segments.

AFTER COMPLETING THIS TASK

You can adjust the shape of slur segments in more detail using their handles.

NOTE

Handles on multi-segment slurs are connected to the corresponding type of handle on adjacent

segments. Moving handles causes any connected handles to move the same amount in the

opposite direction.
