Can't Edit Staff Text Line

• Sep 22, 2024 - 21:21

When I add a staff text line, I am unable to edit the word, "Staff". I want to change "Staff" to "Sostenuto" in italics. Pressing [F2] or double-clicking on the text doesn't do anything. What am I missing?

Also, I don't see any way to change the direction of the end hook. From the palette, the default is a down hook. I tried changing its height to a negative number, and that seemed to do the trick. Is this the correct way change from down hook to up hook?

Thanks.

To edit the Staff text, select the Staff text line, select the Properties panel on the left side, and select the Text option. That is where you can change the Begin text, continu and end text for the line.

Changing the end hook height to a negative number is indeed the correct way to make the hook go up.
