Default Transposing a section only

I want to transpose a section only of the music to add interest. This is in Musician, and apparently it is possible but I can`t find a simple way to do it.

Default Re: Transposing a section only

Hi,

To transpose the pitches for a certain region:

1. Select the region you want to transpose (quickest is probably to click the "Region select" mode button and then click-drag across the region you want).
2. Then use Staff/Transpose actual pitches, and set the amount of transposition you want.

Enjoy
Sherry

Holding down CTRL and dragging left mouse should do it but nothing changes no notes hi light.
Also using Region and putting in bar numbers to change, clicking OK produces no change or dragging mouse over the bars does nothing.

That's funny - it should work and you should get a blue filled selection rectangle.

Are you sure you have not accidentally opened notation player?

I've just rechecked with Composer - both works, select mode + ctrl key or region mode just straight away to do selections... wished I could help...

Hi,

Can you please either post the file here, or send it to me at support@notation.com, and give me a description of what you want to do with it (eg. which measure(s) and what the transposition should be)? I'll take a look at it and see what we can figure out.

Thanks!
Sherry

Default Re: Transposing a section only

Win 7 has been reinstalled maybe this has something to do with it. Thing is if I click on Notes and Rests I can press Shift and dragging the mouse across the notes does nothing until I remove Shift then the notes turn blue. This is only the notes not the typical box with notes in. You cannot change these notes e.g. transpose.
What do you mean Mode and ctrl or Region Mode? I can go to Region (no mode) put in section but this does`nt Hi light the notes. I`ve got a page of notes, where is Notation Player in relation to this, how could I have got there.
Sherry I`ll try and send the page to you. Don`t worry about wanting to transpose etc. just help me back to obtaining a blue Hi lighted section of notes by dragging that I have been used to.
