"overlapping" notes in tab for guitar

• Feb 23, 2017 - 09:30

dear all, i have yet an other one... (please see attached score)

-eg. bar 4 how can i write this better? (i used a hack moving the unisons to a lower string and hiding them but leaving a gap on the lower string)
-eg. the bass tones starting bar 6

I understand the problem; MS tells me i cannot play that unisons on guitar but it is common practise to write it like this...

Thanks again!

Regarding... moving the unisons to a lower string and hiding them but leaving a gap on the lower string.
The gap disappears on the MuseScore display if you go to menu item: View, and then uncheck 'Show Invisible'. That gap also disappears if you export to pdf, regardless if 'Show Invisible' is checked or not checked.
(I haven't tried printing directly from your .mscz file.)

Similarly, regarding the bass tones starting bar 6.
The red color does not show in a pdf export.

Here's a workaround for correct display in MuseScore:
Paste the linked TAB into a non-linked TAB staff, clean up the 'unisons', then remove the linked TAB. Of course this should be done as a final step, after all notes have been entered. See attachment.

Regards.
