General Discussion / Re: Time to check your computer for viruses
"At least half of these virus emails are coming from hotmail accounts"

Yes, but are you sure of this? As I understand it, the klez variants have their own SMTP server built in, so any e-mail they send out have totally forged headers, making it nearly impossible for you to know the e-mail address of the actual infected user unless the file that it sends out contains private info from the infected user's PC, or you are a masterful packet sniffer.

General Discussion / Re: Time to check your computer for viruses
Any time is a good time to check your system for viruses, especially if you have not been doing so periodically.

We now get hundreds of infected e-mails each day, so there are a lot of people infected out there. We get all kinds, including several klez variants. The klez strains are some of the most irritating, since the e-mails that it sends out forge other people's identity in the from header (which it gets from the infected computer's address book), so the person identified as the sender is not even the one infected.

There are site enhancements under development, and we are slowly adding some beta testers. As you note, Fred is helping us test some things.

Tips & Tricks / Re: Transcribing Divisi Parts
Editor's Note: NoteWorthy Composer only supports one voice per staff. You can force it to look like two voices in some cases by using the stem direction control and changing longer duration notes into several smaller ones to get the chords right. You can read all about the chord rules in the Help menu by searching on Chord Member Command. The smallest duration in a chord is what is counted for measures.

The Staff Layering Feature allows you to enter each voice on a staff and then merge the staves for printing.

Tips & Tricks / Re: Fingering
Editor's Note: You may also want to try Insert: Text to place fingering numbers above or below notes. Do not check preserve width and the number will be in vertical line with your note.

Tips & Tricks / Re: Inserting Groupings such as 5, 7, 9
Editor's Note: At this time NWC only supports triplets. If you have a song with more than one staff, this work around could yield unpredictable results as the bar lines may not be accurate.

Tips & Tricks / Re: Arpeggiating Chords
Editors Note: Though arpeggiated chords are not supported in NWC, the song moonlite.nwc in the NWC Samples folder uses Insert: Text to show the symbol { in the Standard Group top staff. The arpeggiated chord sound is then notated in the Hidden Group top staff. Measure 59 is one place the arpeggiated chord is located in the song. The Standard group is for printing (and display). The Hidden Group is for play back. Thus, while playing back the file and displaying the Standard group, it looks as though the { is playing back like a arpeggiated chord. To see all of the staves, go to File: Page Setup, Contents and select all the staves. To put staves in different groups like Standard and Hidden, etc. use Staff: Staff Properties, General tab, enter name.

General Discussion / Re: selection feature
Could you elaborate?

If you are in a bar on one staff, you can move down to the same position on the next staff by pressing Page Down.

You can select a whole bar by double clicking it.

You can find the bar # using the Ctrl+G (Goto) command.
