one more please, where to enlarge X notehead? I prefer to use a larger font for tab numbers but x's don't change size accordingly. Thanks.

Special Tools Tool > sub-tool Notehead Position Tool
A handle appears on the notehead.
Drag across the handle, to select it.
Hit the Return key.
The dialog box Notehead Settings appears.
In the dialog box Notehead Settings you can choose any font, at any size.

I was able to change the size thanks although the return key keystroke shortcut didn't work. Only for Mac? Thanks again.Peter Thomsen wrote: ↑Tue Jun 07, 2022 5:42 amHit the Return key.

I am not sure I understand, but you should try clicking these two buttons:highlife66 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 11, 2022 5:17 am… How do I choose the lower P.M. smartline? I keep getting Palm Mute.......... .
The ‘Left Continuation’ is used when the smart line crosses a system break.
I would see the ‘Left Continuation’ text as an abbreviated version of the ‘Left Start’ text.

Got it! I understand now how to modify them to suit my needs, thank you!
