Why in engrave mode when I select with mouse a area of several notes, sometimes it opens (what I want) the pannel properties ‘Notes nad and rests’ ,and sometimes not?!!!
Dup
It depends whether you have only notes selected or whether you also end up selecting something else. If you’re only seeing the Common group in the panel, it’s because you have at least one item other than a note selected.
Yes but how to select several notes and open the propeties pannel?
for example one measure 4/4 and 4x16th notes slur two by two how to select with the mouse the third group of 16th to hide stem for exemple.
Yes i can select each one note with click and Crtl but not very pratical
It’s sometimes easier to make the selection in Write mode and then switch to Engrave mode, because you could e.g. select the first note in Write mode, then do Shift+right arrow three times to select the next three notes, then switch to Engrave mode, and the selection will be retained and contain only noteheads.
Note that you can draw a marquee selection or use Select More in Engrave mode.
Thanks but:
@Daniel
Unfortunatelyit doesn’t select the noteheads only:
@Pianoléo:
Ctrl+Shift+A select too much all the measure
Finally, I think that my mouse was bought to do “click”
Best regards
Sure, but in Write mode you can select a passage that includes slurs, then Filter Notes and Chords. Then switch to Engrave mode.
Ah, Dup, you’re right, of course. You might find it helpful to assign a key command to the “notes and chords” filter that Leo recommends.
Good solution!
and again great thanks to you Daniel and Pianoléo to spend your time to make us win ours
Dup
Come back four years after:
I want to hide stem to make educationnal exercice
in engrave mode, the selection with the marquee prevents access to the note parameters and rest when there are tuplets
Annoying because I often have to remove or add elements manually:
- Either I have to select the notes one by one
- Either I have to manually deselect the digits of the tuplets
- Either I have to use the Ctrl +shift +A function to select more of the same but then I have to deselect the passages that I don’t want
some pictures: - with deselect the number manually :ok for small passage but not the good solution for me
- draw over the number: ok but only for small passage (vertiacle ambitus small)
Could be great to select only notes like shft + marquee
If you click the first note you want, Ctrl-click the last note you want, then Ctrl-Shift-A, you should find that your original selection is respected.
[EDIT]
yes that’s the solution, but I don’t see how it would interfere with having access to parameters like hide stem when using marquee to make the selection?
It might be worth your while to have a look at the ConsoleTools Lua framework that I have written. In particular, the Selecting library will allow you to select notes (or any other filterable items) in Engrave Mode.
