I'm a string player, so all the questions here about violins and violas.
ok first of all, the program places the beam for eight notes in weird
places. sometime they don't even beam all of the sixteen notes together. so I
see 4 beamed 16th notes, and then 4 separate ones.. although it don't matter, it
would look much better if all of the 16th notes beam up. second, sometime the
stacato dots are not below the notes, but they are above the beams, this looks
ridiculous. and I have no idea how to make a chord with 3 low quarter notes, and
the top note is a whole note. it doesn't show up.
Please copy a minimal example of the problem and we'll try to help. As
regards the chord mixing quarters and a whole note, my guess is that
you'll need to look at "single staff polyphony" in the manual to get
what you want.

and I'm working on a string quartet, and I need to print the scores and parts.
although I've learn about the part print instruction in the manual, I just dont'
know how to remove the comment blocks listed there. I think that all of the
codes listed in the manual should be usable by just copy and paste; not
like that you have to change them. it makes things much easier if u can just
copy and paste the code.
The comment blocks won't affect your score, but if you want to remove
them, just select and delete them, making sure only to delete stuff that
follows the %. Don't delete any curly braces or you'll run into compile
problems.
I'm very new to this. this is the first time I've even use notepad for this
coding-like purpose, I'm just a normal computer user, no coding experience..
sorry if I sounds stupid. thanks for those who will answer my questions
Sincerely,
James
