Re: Audio: two different pitches for one percussion instrument
It appears that you have two pitches for the claves loaded. If you select a note in the first measure, it will read Claves (2), but if you step through the notes with the right arrow, you will get to a measure where it just says Claves. You can use the up or down arrows to get to the other sound. I ...

You can also double tap the duration key (2-8) to dismiss the flat, sharp, or dot.

As a moderator, my task is not to answer every question (which I couldn't.) It's simply to step in with a calming voice when threads may be heating up with personal attacks, or remove and ban obvious spammers.

There are a lot of things that don’t work the way they should. Unfortunately they are unable (or unwilling) to fix them. This is just another one of many.

Re: Assigning lyrics
If you have a slur over a number of notes (melisma), you may use Shift lyrics. There are a few simple options, but what I think you'd need in this case is Shift lyrics to the right, and Shift syllables by one note to the end of the lyric. That's how I do it. Sometimes, you go too far by mistake, an...

Re: Assigning lyrics
Right. When you click the lyrics in one by one, you skip the slurs and put the next lyric where it belongs. Unfortunately, that doesn’t happen with flowing them in.

Re: Assigning lyrics
Exactly as Anders says. On a Mac, opt-click flows the lyrics in, but I guess it’s different on Windows. Ties will be skipped automatically, and use Shift Lyrics to go over slurs.

I have a piece that's written as chant, with time signatures jumping around: 14/4, 3/4, 9/4, 3/4, jumble around, rinse and repeat. This is no problem, I have the SATB parts entered. However, there is a bass drone under the entire piece. I figured I'd use the organ for sound, but is there a way to se...

Re: Can we write text on top of a placed image?
You might be better off doing that in the PDF stage (assuming you save your docs as PDFs before distributing.) I know that requests to move image elements back or forward has been requested for at least a decade.
Or do your image in a program that allows it, and place it as a combined graphic.

Re: F27 doesn't display 16ths, staff styles etc.
Something is amiss. I would suggest uninstalling the program, and downloading a fresh installer.
