Custom Palettes
The following page documents features in an upcoming version of MuseScore. These features are only available for testing in the latest nightly builds. This page should not be translated yet.
Palettes are highly customizable. You can create/delete single palettes and populate them with arbitrary elements from the master palette (todo: link) or from elements of a score. A set of palettes are called a "profile". You can maintain several profiles (todo: link) and easily switch between them.
