If you click on the first one in the Print View the cursor positions on that note in the Denemo Display. There you see that it has no pitch, it is a pure rhythm. It would be possible to switch back to printing notes normally but this way the problem is more obvious - you might otherwise print the piece out start playing it and then hit the mistake, which would cost more in time, effort, paper and ink. > > 2. I can't seem to turn the "Keyboard Midi" state off reliably. Have you got the latest version? (It has the octave change feature). Esc key while in the Simulate MIDI script should put you back where you were (background color, key press capture, return to your preference for Rhythm Entry for MIDI in). > Setting > the input keyboard note names default action didn't work that command is described as: Command: Note Names Default Action Changes the shortcuts for note names a, b, c, d, e, f, g so that they edit the note at the cursor, or append a note when in the appending position.

In the attached file, though I had deleted the lyrics verses (to make > the problem easier to see) they are still in the file! What command did you use? The current version of Lyrics->Delete Verse pops up a dialog to force you to confirm the choice, if you just hit return it will not delete but popup a Cancelled info box. > > 4.

You will need some LilyPond syntax to do that. http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/expressive-marks-as-curves \slurDotted is the syntax for turning slurs dotted you could guess at \tieDotted or look further in the LilyPond manual Richard _______________________________________________ Denemo-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/denemo-devel
