The select button... why?

Does anyone use the select button on the left panel? I suddenly realised that I don’t really know what it does, or why I would need to use it… We can select without it, no?

In Write mode, it functions as a “clicking notes into the staff using the mouse: enabled/disabled” toggle. See the Notes toolbox reference page here.

Ooooh. Ok. I see - you mean in note input mode?

Yes, when that’s active, you can only use the mouse to select things; when it’s deactivated, you can also use the mouse to click in notes during note input.
