You can move rhythm dots horizontally. You can do this for the current layout and frame chain only, or for all layouts and frame chains. However, you cannot move an individual rhythm dot independently of other rhythm dots at the same rhythmic position.
Prerequisite
-
The lower zone is shown.
-
Properties is selected in the lower zone toolbar.
-
Graphic Editing is selected in the Engrave toolbox.
-
You have chosen the appropriate property scope for local properties.
Procedure
- In Engrave mode, select a notehead at each rhythmic position where you want to move rhythm dots.
- In the Properties panel, activate Rhythm dot X in the Notes and Rests group.
- Change the value in the value field.
Result
Increasing the Rhythm dot X value moves all rhythm dots at the selected rhythmic positions to the right, decreasing the value moves them to the left. If the property scope was set to Locally, this change only takes effect in the current layout and frame chain.
