A simple request

2010-11-19 03:30 pm

Recently I found myself writing a lot of "crescendo molto" and "diminuendo poco a poco".
Nothing so hard to do, but I just wondered: why not to add "crescendo molto", "diminuendo molto", "crescendo poco a poco" and "diminuendo poco a poco" to the dynamic variance native list?

Of course it's not the case to try to follow the imagination of all the musicians, but I think those are quite diffused.

O.T. I think it was Schubert that, in a piano sonata, wrote "with full strenght" and, a few bars later, "stronger"...

It was Schumann, Sonata n. 2 in sol min. op. 22.
And it was

Quote

So rasch, wie möglich

and

Quote

Schneller

and

Quote

Noch Schneller

that is: "as fast as possible", then "faster", then "even faster"...
My memory, bah!

I would like to see a text box there. Ideally, it would remember the last few dozen entries and offer them as an autocomplete.

IMO, NWC would be improved if most of its text boxes recognized rudimentery rich text format. (bold, italic, sub, super, underline, etc.)

I save common text entries in Notepad to save typing.
