On a project, I have SWING enabled and at some point I want to turn it off. I follow the directions on the HELP WEBSITE exactly but it does not turn off -- I set up a misc term "Noswing", then using s"PLAYBACK OPTIONS" I set swing value to 0 (zero), then click "OK: but it does nothing. How do I swing turn off ????? = Brent

That’s exactly what I would have told you to do. You might want to verify that the Category is set up to apply to all staves.

In the Score List, have it apply to All Staves for parts. Generally, that won't look any different in the part than it did when Top Staff is selected. For 2 stave parts (Piano, etc.), only check the top staff of the 2.
