Advancing to the Next (or Previous) Beat While Editing Chord Names

As you are adding or editing chord names, you can advance to the next (or previous) note or chord name in the following ways:

Generate/B8.gif      Hit the TAB key to advance to the next major beat in the meter or chord name, which ever comes first. The location of major beats in a measure is determine by the meter. For example, the major beat in a 4:4 meter is a quarter note; and the major beat in a 6:8 meter is a dotted quarter note.

Generate/B8.gif      Type SHIFT+TAB to go back to the previous major beat or chord name, which ever comes first.

Generate/B8.gif      If you are adding chord names and advance to a next or previous major beat that does not already have a chord name, then you can type in a new chord name at that location.

Generate/B8.gif      You do not have to add a chord name at every major beat, of course. If you do not want to add a chord name at a beat, skip over it by hitting the TAB key to advance to the next beat.
