Hi everyone,

Last week, I implemented the Shift key functionality to change the hairpin type. Now, while dragging, we can press the Shift key to toggle between crescendo or decrescendo hairpin, as shown below.

Additionally, I forgot to mention earlier that we can now add hairpins from the popup.

Next Steps

This week, I plan to add the 'Add Dynamic' shortcut key (which by default will be

Hello everyone,

Last week, I continued working on the grip functionality to add hairpins. I made some changes to the positioning of the hairpin. Earlier, if we had a whole note, the drawn hairpin's length would take up the entire measure, but now it will be set according to the cursor position (which doesn't appear to be buggy as earlier), as you can see below.

I have added the functionality to the left grip as well, which can be used

Hey everyone,

Welcome back! Last week, I continued working on adding hairpins when dragging the grips. I was able to implement the functionality for the grip on the right side. Now, when it's dragged, a crescendo hairpin can be drawn, as you can see in the gif below.

Next Steps

Currently, the grips still exist on the dynamic (both the starting

Hey all,

This will be a quick update on my progress from last week. I mostly spent time understanding the codebase around grips (the small rectangles) and how they are drawn onto the score. I was able to add them to dynamics, which will be used as drag handles for drawing the crescendo and decrescendo hairpins by dragging them, as described in my first blog.

Hi everyone,

Welcome back! This week I have added the functionality to change the dynamic from the popup. Now, you can click on an existing dynamic on the score and change it through the popup. Here's a short clip demonstrating how it works.

Additionally, I've made the necessary changes to the previous code based on my mentor's feedback from the code review.
