But I was trying to use articulations because they were the only symbols that I could get to with shortcuts (through keypad (F11 articulations)). Shortcuts are limited to two levels of menus and even then do not include all items on a menu. For instance, to place a fingering requires 'Create - Text - Other Staff Text - Guitar fingering' and then the key for the particular letter or number. The shortcuts list has 'Create' but then there is no 'Text' option for the second step of the shortcut. How do you make a shortcut to specific text expressions?
