Re: setting 8va in parts of a score
Reply #1 –
G'day Robin,
there isn't an 8va button. But, it is simple enough to insert a clef with an octave shift, place the 8va indicator as text (along with any lines you might want) and then restore the octave shift with a normal clef.
To insert the clef, simply click the clef button on the toolbar, then highlight it (drag the mouse or <Shift+L/R Arrow), press <Alt+Enter> and select the Octave Shift required. NB, if you make the clef non-printing you won't have a visible clef on the next system. There are ways around this too, but it may simply be easiest to leave the octave shift and restore clef's visible.
