In the attached file, is it possible to put a circle around one note?
(the F-natural.) Thanks.

Sure, use the expression tool to do it.

Curious, what would a circled note mean?

As JT said, use an expression. (Enlarge the screenshot to see it!)

Thanks, that worked just fine. See the attached example. I'm using the
circle to clarify a seeming mistake as a footnote ("ossia") to a piano piece.
An F-natural is intentionally written even though it might seem like a
typo. Thanks for your question.
