How to play detached notes?
Is there a way to have MuseScore play notes detached instead of legato? I can add staccato markings, but that is too dry; I'm looking for something that would play a duration between staccato and the full duration of the note.
I would like to use this to indicate the last note of a phrase.

Hello,
With 1.3?
So, go the Beam Properties Palette
- For a whole passage, select it -> double-click on the quarter note symbol.
Result:
- For a single note, ditto: select the last note -> double-click on the symbol
In reply to With 1.3?So, go the Beam by cadiz1
doesn't have any influence on playback though

I understood:
Staccato/Tenuto, and their modulations
but I can not find the trick ;-)

Ah yes, sorry! I had not read to the end (: Wanting an intermediate duration time between a legato note and a staccato note is a different story !!

Yes, that's it. I see someone asked for a similar enhancement

Thanks. That's exactly what I was looking for.
Adjustments as to when to turn off a note can be found by right clicking on a note, then in 'Note Properties' you can set the 'offtime offset type' to 'user'. Lastly, enter a value in the offtime box.
I used -80 in my example attachment. Listen to the play back.
Also, you can Ctrl click to select multiple notes in the score, then change the offtimes for all if you want the same value for each.
Regards.

How do I do the same thing for Musescore2?

The most similar thing is the "pianoroll editor" you can access if you right click a measure. it works differently, but provides some similar functionality.

The portato marking also has a similar effect, it seems.

Thank you for pointing this out.

Sorry to pile on here...I downloaded the file into musecore 3 and could not for the life of me figure out where the controls are to specify 80% as demonstrated. Could someone elaborate?

This thread references an older version, and things have moved around. The controls in question are in the piano roll editor that you open by right-clicking a measure and choosing that from the menu. But, an easier way to adjust the playback durations of note is to install the articulation plugins from @BSG. Click the Download menu above, then Plugins, to access it.

If you are referring to the attachment "Slur off timing.mscz" which I posted back in 2014, be advised that it was created with MuseScore 1.3 when parameters like 'Note Properties' and 'offtime offset type' were accessible.
Nowadays, you can open the piano roll editor to view and/or modify the 'Len' value (length) for those notes.
