General Discussion / NWC2 Doesn't Play Tied Notes?
Is there a way to make NWC recognize notes tied across bars so that it plays them as one note? 

I'm new to NWC and am really starting to get the hang of the workflow for entering music.  I finished loading a 16th centure madrigal piece (6 parts) that has lots of moving parts.  In fact every part moves differently!  I'm trying to teach all the singers their part by giving them a midi file of just that part.  BUT, shen I played back the soprano part, I noticed that NWC was sounding a tied pair of notes (half-note tied to a quarter note across a bar) as if they were not tied at all.  It sounds the keys as two notes instead of just one.  I guess NWC does not send any midi data for ties?  Is there a work-around?

Thanks.

General Discussion / Notes Print Too Small?
Sorry if this has been cussed and discussed many times.  But I couldn't find the answer in my forum search.  My nerves are shot at this point, so that may be why I'm having trouble.  Anyway, My print out looks great except for one thing.  The notes are too small.  Is there any way to make them bigger?  I have tried Page Properties, and enlarged every font size there to no avail.

thanks.

General Discussion / Re: Adding Lyrics to Imported MIDI File?
Thanks Warren!

I think the program I used for exporting of MIDI just doesn't do it very well.  After hours of trying, I decided to start anew in NWC.  Now I have done this.  About the only thing I need to know now is how to get it to print out with larger notes.  I have 20/20 vision, but it would be REALLY hard for me to sight-read this.  The notes are so tiny.  Surely there is a way, but I can't find it in the help anywhere.  I'll put a separate post for this.  I'll also do a serach of the forum.  It's been a big help so far.

Thanks again.

General Discussion / Adding Lyrics to Imported MIDI File?
Hi.  I'm brand-spanking-new to NWC and am trying to import a midi file so I can add lyrics and have it print as standard notation.  I can import the midi file just fine.  But even though I enter the lyrics in the editor and hit OK, the lyrics still don't show up on the music.  I know that NWC requires you to "enter" notes before the lyrics will show up.  So the only thing I can think of is that the Import MIDI function doesn't create actual "notes" that NWC can recognize.  Is that right?  Is there a way around this?  I am used to step-composing in another program which, unfortunately, does not have a notation feature.

Thanks.
