Why does untie beams not work?
And how can you learn to select notes with the mouse?
Its 32 MB

ok. Does this work?
Please write a clear description in your post, the 3 minute video is too long and too low-res to make out. Sorry
My clear question:
I select one or both beamed notes and go to the menu to interrupt the beams, but nothing happens.
Playing around with the note length in the key editor brings about certain changes, but never an eighth note with flags.
Finally, I ask for instructions on how to select notes. That’s why the video takes so long. When framing with the mouse, I often don’t get any content at all, or the wrong content. Or one note of a chord is missing.
Sometimes you click on a single note, but then 2 of the three are selected.
I just can’t figure out the rules.
Back to selection.
If I want to mark the notes in the lower system and click where the red mark is, the chord in the upper line is selected without any further action.
After that, I can’t just start again, but have to click in the void and then try to get a frame around the notes in the lower line.
I feel like a patient trying to walk for the first time.
Is there a course somewhere that teaches the rules for using the mouse in the note editor?
Perhaps it has a deeper practical use, but I don’t understand it.
How can I remove the stacc dot in the Bass System in bar 1 and 2?
Simply clicking on the item in the menu doesn’t do anything.
I don’t want to switch off the detection globally either.
How to move the Text a little bit in the middle of the bar as it was before adding the keychange?
Selecting the text and move it with the mouse is not possible obviously.
Hi Steve / @steve,
Hapy New Year!
Only at second glance I was able to see that this video’s resolution is switchable (to up to 4K). I suppose Youtube player’s auto settings try to keep multi user bandwiths as low as possible, so that at first many videos are being played at 360p / 480p.
Best wishes,

Hi @oove999,
first of all:
Happy New Year!
As of yet, a PDF user manual for Cubase Pro 14 still isn’t available [ edit: it is, thanks to @PaulWalmsley, who just posted its weblink ], whereas - at least to me - the new Cubase Score Editor looks and feels pretty straight forward, and this is what Steinberg’s Online Help section contains about the Beaming Submenu:
By using different single and combined note selections (by using the mouse pointer within the Score Editor window) and by using all four available beaming commands, you should be able to edit most beamings at will.
However, for now you’d probably need to keep your score notes as quantized as possible (-> Key Editor) and also don’t change note lengths too much from what they’re intended to be, so that - ideally - no complicated (and unresolvable) automated results would get in your way. In Dorico (all versions) you can of course make much more refined settings.
Since mainly, and if I’m not entirely mistaken, the new Cubase Score Editor still doesn’t seem to have a toggle function between global and local, like Dorico has. And although being a derivative of Dorico, the Cubase Score Editor will certainly become more flexible over time.
I made a quick and simple piano score, and the Score Editor’s beaming concept doesn’t feel bad at all:
Best,
Markus

This is interesting and I hope, this will be available one day.
Thank you very much for your answer.
I showed my two main problems in the video.
Sometimes it is possible, as you write - completely normal, as you would expect.
But very often I only manage to reach the notes with great effort. Although I have clearly drawn the frame correctly around the notes, some are missing or too many are marked.
That’s one thing.
The other is that removing the beams doesn’t always work, as you can see in the video. Even changing them in the key editor doesn’t help.
In other places it works again.
And in general I think the quick and dirty articulation recognition is excellent!!
But it must be possible, for example, to remove a staccato point on an otherwise long note without turning the whole thing off completely and drawing it by hand.
(Strangely enough, it works today.)
I have read the Hilde and the PDF. It’s actually not that difficult at this point.
But it still doesn’t work reliably.

Can you provide a small project file that demonstrates the problem?
Regarding the staccato dots, we do intend to make it possible to remove individual automatically-created staccato dots, but right now this requires toggling the entire interpretation setting off for a track.
On you comments about selecting notes: single clicking a notehead should just select that notehead. Drawing a marquee around noteheads should select those noteheads. As you noticed though, there is some aspect not wokring exactly as it should, this is also something we plan to improve.

Thank you Stefan,
As a loyal customer and actually happy user that the music editor is being improved, I remain patient, excited and optimistic that you will integrate a good score editor.
I think that is much more important than Dorico as “just” a score editor.
