Grouping/splitting note values
Is there a way to group or split note values? (Rather than re-writing the measure)
That is, for example, let's say I've got 4 C chords in a row, all with quarter note values. Is there a way to quickly group those into one C chord with a whole note value? (Or, to split the whole note value into half or quarters?)
Sort of like the 'q' and 'w' feature...

Yup.
1. Selec t chords 2-4
2. Hit delete
That's assuming you're talking about chord symbols.
Won't work the other way :(
Are they all the same exact voicing? If so, all you need to do is turn the first quarter into a whole note, right? Just click it and press 7. As for splitting a whole note, press 6 to turn it into a half, then Ctrl-C to copy, click the subsequent rest, Ctrl-V to paste.

thanks - that works.
Yes, this is regarding specific notes (eg: C, E, G), not chord symbols.
I can select the whole chord - or any expression - by
- pressing esc. to exit note entry mode
- clicking any note in the chord
- shift-clicking any other note in the chord
is that the fastest way to select a chord?
In reply to thanks - that works. Yes, by gntsketches
The fastest way is to shift click one note of the chord.
