Where is the STart Centre

• Jan 12, 2019 - 04:28

I know this is a silly question but I have read the handbook, read through the Mastering Musescore, put Start Centre in Search for both Musescore.com and Musescore.org and cannot find the Start Centre to commence writing my scores. I understand all the lessons etc. but I just cannot find the Start Centre. I am annoyed with myself because it must be so simple. Can someone please advise?

The Start Center should display when you first start MuseScore (hence the name) - you don't need to do anything special to display it. If you've closed it. you can re-open it with View / Start Center.

But - you don't need the Start Center to do; it's mostly just a convenience for showing you your most recently opened scores. If you want to write a score, just go to File / New - no need to open the Start Center first.

This assumes you actually downloaded and installed MuseScore onto your computer and are running it. If you're trying to create scores using a web site, that's not going to happen - you need to do this using MsueScore on your computer. So if you haven't installed it yet, see the Download menu above on this page.

No, it's still right where it's been for some time. It should display by default when you start MuseScore unless you've turned that off in Edit / Preferences, but you can also open it at any time from the File menu. I think it was in the View menu at one point.
