Request re: Choral scores

• Jan 5, 2018 - 18:30

Dear Musescore team:

I’m writing with regard to the templates for choral pieces in the startup wizard.

In particular, I’m wondering if the choral default templates could be updated so that dynamic markings, hairpins, etc. might default to above the staff for the vocal lines. We are able to tweak these settings once we've created a document (or create our own templates to use), but I wonder if this is a refinement that would be helpful to everyone writing a choral piece in Musescore. Left to the defaults, these items are popped into the lyrics space below each staff so a lot of dragging needs to occur to be standard for vocal pieces.

For example, I typically use a -1.60sp for hairpins, and -1 Horizontal and Vertical offsets for dynamics.

For the piano or organ reduction lines in these templates, it would fine to have these items default to under those particular staves, though I don’t think we yet have a differentiation in instrumental v. vocal defaults in the same score.

Thank you for your consideration.
