Removing manual changes to slur?

Hi all,

there is this great way of resetting changes to staff or note spacing, just pressing back space.

Is there a similar shortcut for slurs? Would be fantastic to be able to start over tweaking gone bad without having to do 4 switch clicks. Or deleting/reinputting.

Thanks,

The Edit > Reset Position / Appearance commands should work on slurs (and any other item).

Of course! Thanks a lot! Not as fast as a quick backspace, but much better than what I was doing.

Thanks Lillie.

I think you should be able to assign your own key commands to those menu options in Preferences.

Certainly. I often make the mistake of not realising that many of the edit commands are available in Engrave mode also, not only in Write mode.

Backspace or Delete in Engrave mode would certainly make the most sense to me. That’s what I press to remove the selected spacing changes from a handle in Staff Spacing or Note Spacing.

Agreed. I press it many times just from habit, only to realise that nothing happens in this case…

I think I requested ages ago that Delete in Engrave mode should reset position/appearance in Graphical Editing - as it does in Note/Staff Spacing.

Given that we can’t Delete things, only adjust them, it makes perfect sense.
