Default Re: Split point ?

Hi Ian,

There is not currently a "split at X note" command for the staff (it is on the "to do/wish list").

One "sneak technique" that has worked for this type of thing for organists (who split out such notes) is to use the "Staff/Split Drums" on the staff (yes, you read that correctly ) and then re-merge staves based on the note placement. Odd, but true.

ttfn,
Sherry

Yes, I can see that would work. Lateral thinking (the work-round) triumphs again. The mark of a truly skilled mind.........

Thanks, Sherry.

Default Re: Split point ?

Hello,
actually I also would like to see this feature (setting a split point).

I have a somewhat related question/feature request.

I have situations where I have a piano score with 2 staffs. Occasionally I ahve found that when recording all the notes are being place in one staff. Is there a a way to move these notes to the other staff? When I use the split hands feature it creates a new staff. Currently I am going note by note and moving them to the other staff with the keyboard shortcut, but it woul dbe nice if I could select a section, split hands and have an option to target the other staff (or select a staff when there are more than 2).

Regards,
shelby
