1st and 2nd Endings<br />

Following the insertion of one of the repeat endings, text entry mode is automatically<br />

activated. The default text is “1.” and “2.” If suitable, confirm with Return. If unsuitable,<br />

you can freely enter any text into these brackets. The bracket that defaults to “2.” is<br />

open—without a vertical end line, like the “1.” ending.<br />

Because the text can be changed, you also can create a 2nd ending with a vertical line,<br />

for example. The font, text size, and style of these numbers or text elements is set in the<br />

Text Styles window. (See Working with Text Styles.) To edit the text, double-click it.<br />

A 1st or 2nd ending can be moved by dragging its upper-left corner. The length can be<br />

changed by dragging the right end. If a repeat ending is selected, it can be deleted by<br />

pressing the Delete key.<br />

First and second endings are only displayed on staffs with bar lines that aren’t connected<br />

to the staff above.<br />

The Alternate Repeat Symbols (for the whole project) option in File > <strong>Pro</strong>ject Settings ><br />

Score > Global activates a real book style display of repeat signs.<br />

Bar Repeat Signs<br />

The one- or two-bar repeat symbols replace all notes and rests in the corresponding<br />

measures. All other symbols remain visible. This does not affect MIDI playback, so hidden<br />

notes can still be heard. These signs can only be moved in the Event List or Event Float<br />

window.<br />

Double Repeat Sign<br />

The double repeat sign behaves as expected, unless it is positioned at a line break. In this<br />

situation, it is automatically displayed as two back-to-back repeat signs.<br />

Working with Standard Text<br />

You can use standard text objects in the Part box to add standard text. The basic functions<br />

for moving the pointer, deleting parts of the text, and so on, are the same as they are for<br />

most word-processing applications.<br />

Inserting Text<br />

You can add text in the same way as you add other score symbols: by dragging the object<br />

from the Part box to the score. Alternately, you can use the Text tool to enter text.<br />
