To export the score as an image<br />

1 Select the Camera tool.<br />

2 Drag across the part of the score section you want to export. A selection rectangle appears<br />

as you do this.<br />

As soon as you release the mouse button, <strong>Logic</strong> <strong>Pro</strong> creates a PDF file (or copies the<br />

selection to the Clipboard, depending on the Camera Tool setting you chose),<br />

encompassing the area you dragged the Camera tool over.<br />

Note: This function is only available in Page Score view.<br />

Customizing the Score Editor’s Appearance<br />

Various options are available for changing the general appearance of the Score Editor.<br />

The different view modes can accelerate editing, or are required for particular operations.<br />

Choosing a Color Mode<br />

The settings in the Score Editor’s View > Colors menu determine the color mode for the<br />

active Score Editor window. These settings have priority over all other color settings.<br />

• Normal: Colors are assigned in accordance with the color settings in staff styles and<br />

note attributes. As long as these settings haven’t been changed in new projects, the<br />

result is a regular black-and-white printout, and black notes on a yellow background<br />

onscreen.<br />

• Show Pitch: Applies colors in accordance with note pitches. The colors of notes can be<br />

edited in the Layout > Colors window. This window also allows you to determine<br />

whether notes with accidentals match the color of those without accidentals, or if each<br />

note in the chromatic scale has its own color.<br />

• Show Velocity: Applies eight different colors, in accordance with MIDI velocity. These<br />

colors can also be edited in the Layout > Colors window.<br />

• Show Voice Assignment: Assigns different colors to different voices. This only makes<br />

sense in staff styles that contain more than one voice. This mode employs the colors<br />

of the user palette, which can also be found and edited in the Layout > Colors window.<br />

• Force Black & White: Does exactly what the name implies. This mode is useful when<br />

color options have been used in staff styles, or have been assigned to notes using note<br />

attributes, but you want to print a regular black-and-white score and then return to<br />

the colored display.<br />
