Different Note Head on Grace Notes

• Apr 25, 2018 - 02:53

Hello!

I am typing a piece that requires a note with a cross note head, but a grace note with a normal note head. However, it seems as though the grace note has to match the note head type of the note. Is there any way I can do this?

EDIT: I was able to find a way that worked. I created a normal note in voice 1 and set it to invisible. I then created a cross note in voice 2. I created a grace note on the invisible note and used Edit Element to move it over a little bit. It works and I'll go with this now. If you have another way, please comment below!

In both versions 2.1 & 2.2.1 adding a grace note to a note with a cross notehead gave me a grace note with a normal head. Changing the normal note's head to a cross after adding the grace note, left the grace note with a standard head. All of this was exclusively in voice 1. Can you attach a score that makes them have to match.

What instrument, by change percussion? Can you share a score showing that?

On a normal staff this just works, add note in any voice, add grace note to, change notehead of note or grace note independantly of one another via Inspector.
