Things I missed in the Beta for 2.0

• Sep 11, 2014 - 17:30

I have now tried out the first Beta for 2.0, and I am happy for the new features. However, there are some features I miss from the 1.3 version:
1) I miss the option to change values of a single note manually. For instance, I miss making notes invisible, changing the distance between notes and changing the dynamics. For dynamics, I would appreciate if someone could find out how to change the dynamics where for the dynamics marks as well.
2) I miss the shortcut for dynamics (l) (that only that section opens), and I do not find the crescendo or diminuendo mark.
3) When I notated with my symphony template and clicked on notes I had put in for
instruments bellow the top, the screen moved to the top so that I all the time have to scroll downwards every time I want to adjust a single note which is at the bottom.
4) I cannot drag more than one note at a time upwards and downwards.


Comments

1a) select note, hit 'v' or use the Inspector (F8) (it was right click, make invislible before)
2) crescendo and diminuento are a) on shortcuts < and > (was h and H before) and b) in the Lines Palette (been there ever since)
4) select a range and use the arrow keys to move up and down (been that way ever since

On the palette, you mean? You can customize the palette - use Edit / Workspaces to create a workspace where you can customize palettes, then Shift+Ctrl+drag anything you like into the palette. One of the great new features of 2.0 (although 1.3 did have some undocumented customization possibilities as well).

#3 is a known bug tht should hopefully be fixed before the next beta, whenever that turns out to be.
