Bell choir notation

Does NWC support anything to aid bell choirs? Specifically, I'd like to color-code notes. While we're at it, can parts on the same staff be color-coded?

I'm not sure what bell choir colour coding looks like, but it is possible to specify colours for any object in Noteworthy.

Select the object(s), right click and choose "Properties" (you may select any number of objects, even if they're different types). Click on the "Visibility" tab. There is an "Item color" drop down to select "default" or any of 3 highlight colours. By default red, green and blue. To change the colours, go to the "Tools" menu and select "Options". Click the "Color" tab - this allows you to change the highlight colours.

If you happen to own a suitable drawing program, you may be able to import your NWC composition either as a Windows Metafile, or Postscript-PDF if you have that technology. Once in a drawing program, you can do what you like, as the components are individually editable.

MS Word can do this too. Just copy paste into word, ungroup, and use the drawing tool bar.
