I have a 4 part polyphonic score I am working on and I want to use my arrow keys to scroll through the notes. This works depending on which voice is selected. For example, if I select a note with my mouse in voice 1 I am able to scroll through the notes with my arrow keys only in that voice. However, if I want to now move to voice 2, how can I do this? I can click on the note in voice 2 with my mouse and then use the arrow keys but is there a way to do this without having to move from keyboard to mouse and back to keyboard?
Yes there are ways to do this.
An example:
-
“Manually”
Edit>Select None (Key command)
Insert Voice: x (Key command)
Then Arrow keys <> -
Same procedure using a Macro (then arrow keys)
(you’ll have to create a macro for each voice)
But know that when you move to another voice for a given staff, the navigation using arrow keys starts from the beginning of the current system (line).
Maybe others have better ideas.
