Title: Bagpipe music gracenotes
Post by: Jim Quinby on 1999-11-01 05:00 AM
Bagpipe music has a number of standard gracenote embellishments, ranging from 1 to 4-5 quick (32-nd) notes tied together. They go under the names of grips, pinky birls, tarleuths, doublings, etc. NWC provides tied gracenote notation, but entry can become tedious.

Here's my question: can a user customize the note toolbar with CUSTOM notes (in this case custom gracenote patterns)? In other words, I would like to create buttons (icons) for inserting these grips, birls, etc.
Can this be accomplished with NWC?

Thanks from a new NWC user,
Jim Q.

You could investigate using the Macro Recorder which came with Win 3.1.

Although you can customize the toolbars, you cannot add arbitrary new capabilities, such as what you want. As suggested above, a macro capability seems to be closer to what you want. The capability you want is not natively supported in NWC.

In the mean time, creating yourself a library NWC file of these things would probably suffice for quick copy/pasting.
