Mini note as anchor sign

• Sep 16, 2010 - 16:07

I want to use mini notes with parentheses to give for instance a place where
a Right Hand anchor finger can be placed on a (guitar)string
(see the attachment where the a is used).
Because they are not part of a measure I cannot use a regular note within brackets.
Is there a possibility to do this sort of thing in MuseScore?

Indeed. Sorry. I read your post a little bit to quickly.
The best way to obtain the A note between parenthesis is to do it manually with the Z palette.
Press Z, and you will be able to drag and drop a notehead and two parenthesis. Unfortunatly I can't think of making it smaller.

Joe, you could get a small anchor note between small parentheses as follows:

1. Drag a grace note from the Grace Notes Palette to the note following where you want the anchor note;

2. Position the grace note you just created on the desired line or space;

3. Right-click on the grace note, go to Note Properties..., and then check the boxes for both Small and Stemless; and

4. Drag your parentheses from the "Z Palette" to the grace note.
