Aligning 3 staves

2007-01-29 12:12 am

Hi -

I'm a bit of a newbie when it comes to using Noteworthy. I'm working on combining three parts (a vocal line, a piano line and a bass line) into one sheet of music. My problem is, for some reason the spacing between the notes on my bass line is causing the measures to misalign between the three parts. It just makes it look sloppy. Is there a way to manually adjust or auto-align the three parts so measure xyz is above measure xyz in each part?

Thanks

G'day,
if the time values for the notes are correct, everything should align by itself.

If the bass line is causing misalignments elsewhere then I'd look for note values that don't add to exactly the value of the time signature.

It may not be the bass line at fault, you may have it correct and the other 2 staves, which obviously agree with each other, may be the ones that are wrong.
