General Discussion / Editor Display Question
Last post by fathafluff -
This forum has been so quiet and now two questions within an hour.
I am creating a score with multiple staves. I opened Staff Properties for each staff and added a Staff Name, Staff Label, and Abbreviated name for each staff. The editor screen indented and showed the name to the left of each staff. I hit something (not sure what) and the staff names have disappeared in the editor. They still show in the Print Preview. I've looked at, I think, all of the staff and editing screen menus and cannot find anything to restore them in the editor. I'm sure one of the experts knows exactly where to fix this.

General Discussion / Wrong verse highlighted after master repeat
Last post by Alan_J -
I'm working with a song which begins with a two-measure master repeat, followed by the verses, of which there are two.  Without fail, when playing, it highlights the lyrics of the second verse.  At the end of the piece is a Da Capo, which returns playback to the beginning where the first two measures of the master repeat play just ONCE, without repetition, then plays thru to the end for the second verse, which is highlighted a second time.  As a workaround, I tried adding a third verse, making the first verse empty and moving the two verses down to the 2nd and 3rd position, thinking that if it was going to highlight the 2nd verse instead of the first, then it would in reality be highlighting the correct one.  Nope!  It highlighted the lyrics of the last verse (the true 2nd verse) on both passes.  Back to square.

So.... I replaced the master repeat with a local repeat (2) and verse 1 is highlighted.  Now when playback hits the Da Capo at the end, it returns to the beginning and plays the two measure local repeat twice, as desired, BUT on this second pass, the second verse is NOT highlighted... the first verse is highlighted for the second time.  The playback is correct, with the exception of the wrong verse being lit on the second pass.

Is this a common quirk, and if so, has anyone found a workaround solution?

I think you might mean Schumann's sonata No. 2 in g-minor op 22, where the first movement is overwritten "So rasch wie möglich" = "as fast as possible", but then contains the instructions "Schneller" (faster) and "Noch schneller" (even faster).

General Discussion / Memory lost :-)
Last post by Flurmy -
Long, long ago I met a score for piano in which the autor, obviously a romantic  ;), wrote "to be played at full strength" and, a few bars later, "stronger".
I don't remember even if it was written in italian ("con tutta la forza", "ancora più forte") or in German.
Maybe it was Schumann or Schubert, but I'm not sure at all. Surely it is a famous one.
Can someone help my memory?  :)
