Adding a fermata to the top and bottom of a chord.
I am transcribing an old score and in one measure, there are two fermatas one above the chord and
one below the chord. How do I enter both of them? In the properties I found the "above" and "below"
option but not a "both". I tried entering one and then going back and entering the other but M deletes the
old one as it adds the new one.
thank you

Hmm, looks like a missing feature. You could make one of the notes in another Voice and add a fermata to that.
You can flip the first one by using "X" to below and add another one from the symbols in master palette.

When there are two fermatas it usually indicates that there are two voices. If you use two voices in musescore you can add a fermata to each one. one of them can (should) be on the opposite side of the stave.

Thank you I found it.
The chord from the top is: E,C,A.
I had entered the E and the A as voice 1.
I kept clicking on the A trying to stick in the Fermata but it would go to the top.
I looked at the C and saw that it was voice 2, and selected it and the tried the fermata and it went to the
bottom. So the from the suggestions/feedback I got, it led me to go back and look at the voices and I
figured it out.
Yeah, thanks for the suggestions. The immediate feedback I get on the forum is super.
