General Discussion / Re: Verticle alignment of layered notes
Rick G.,

I followed your instructions and the layered example looks perfectly spaced. Does this mean I have a
single template on which such layered rhythms will look right, or will they come out good on other songs, too?
I'll copy your codes to a document folder and save them. Thanks a lot for your time ! ! !

John,

Thanks, you'd think I would have tried your excellent fix by now, but I somehow missed it. It works perfectly and It sure beats using whiteout on the score.  It requires extra time to do something that
seems like it should go down automatically right as entered the first time in an ideal world.

Rick G.,

Thanks for your cool looking reply as well, maybe after I've been doing nwc for twelve years like you,
I'll have a clue what to do with that solution. It may as well be written in Hebrew as far as my understanding of what to do with it. Duh. I'm pretty new at this computer thing. What is that? Some
kind of a set of instructions for me to set something? Like how to set nwc so it always automatically
does what I want? I'd really go for that, meantime I'll humbly settle for MusicJohn's fix :)

General Discussion / Verticle alignment of layered notes
Dear Friends,

If you open a new file with two staves on it maybe you can see the problem I'm having.
Just enter in 3/4 time: eighth, eighth, dotted quarter on the upper staff,
(stems up), then on the lower staff enter two lower notes with stems down: half, quarter.
Now hit F2 and check "layer with next staff" to see what you get.  I would like to see
my quarter note in the bass moved over to the right quite a bit, y'know? A "distance equals
time" concept would be the preferable image for reading the print. I've enabled the "more
space for longer notes" setting, but still get the misleading spacing. Any suggestions?
I'm driven up the wall by the placement of the bass quarter note too close to the treble
dotted quarter to represent what happens in the flow of time to the right.  Maybe you
have some different settings I don't know about to fix this problem.  Windows XP is my system.

General Discussion / Varying the number of staves on a song file
Anyone, is it possible to start a song with one staff and then add another voice several bars later on another
staff that wouldn't appear as an empty staff at the beginning of the song? Please forgive my failure to
find this in the "help" file.  Thanks.
