  • When switching voices, measures no longer shift around.

  • Playback of voice two when ‘Show Inactive Voice’ is set to: ‘Hidden’, was resting for empty measures. Now those empty measures are skipped as they are when doing the same for voice one.

Bugs Fixed

  • Fixed an issue where if you were dragging a new bookmark from the menu bar while in page view and if the score was already scrolled down, the score would unexpectedly start to scroll as soon as you entered the score area from the top.

  • Many other improvements.


Version 2.4
(Build 51)
11/15/22

New Features

  • Greatly enhanced speed when invoking the score browser.

  • Dragging overlapping objects is now giving precedence to one that has been previously selected making it easier to grab hold of the selected object.

  • Bookmark any measure(s). Dragging the new bookmark menu icon to any measure saves a bookmark to that measure which is indicated at the end of the measure. This menu bookmark item doubles as a bookmarks dropdown for editing and navigating between bookmarks.

  • A shape’s start and end handles (slur, crescendo, 8va, etc.) can now be dragged in page view and can also now be attached from one staff to another as well as from one voice to another.

  • You can now “hold” an expression tool by double tapping in the expressions palette. This immediately closes the expression palette and sets the menu icon to the new tool, and flashes it to let you know it is persistently active. This allows you to enter that expression into your score without the palette open (to maximize screen real estate). Tapping on the flashing icon turns it off and goes back to normal.

Bugs Fixed

  • Fixed an issue in scroll view that was inadvertently introduced in v2.3, where you could not drag an expression or note that was previously dragged far below the staff back up towards the staff.

  • Fixed an issue where searching for existing text from the top menu while in page view, the page did not scroll to the expected location.

  • Fixed an issue where tremolos could have been dragged off of their note stem.

  • Fixed an issue when scrubbing in audio mode. If you repeatedly changed direction to scrub over the same beat, that beat was not re-articulating.

  • Fixed an issue where a newly loaded score could start playing measure 1 immediately because the user may have inadvertently double-tapped the Apple Pencil barrel despite not yet having interacted with that score.

  • Fixed an issue where, after playing back a region in the arrange editor, exiting to your score, then going into the main audio playback - the playhead was not appearing.

  • Fixed an unexpected quit when dragging a shape’s (slur, accel., 8va, etc.) right handle to the left past its left handle, then trying to undo.

  • Fixed an issue where after inserting a new slur from a note to a chord, undo was not working.

  • Fixed an issue when you had a slur that spanned multiple systems (in page view). If the right anchor of the slur ended in a measure that had a backward repeat, the slur was not drawing correctly.

  • Fixed an issue when creating a new score directly after having a score with more staffs than the one you are creating. This was leaving left over staff names on screen until you refreshed the screen.

  • Other fixes.

Miscellaneous

  • Removed support for Adonit styluses.

Known Issues

  • Printing in landscape mode on two sides incorrectly flips the reverse side.

  • Searching in the reference manual finds the correct page and highlights the search term, but does not scroll to the first occurrence on that page.

  • Playhead does not start from a dragged position in presentation view as it does is in the other two views.

June 4th, 2022

Features Added

  • When adding fretboards, you can now designate the starting fret. The fretboard chooser will automatically repopulate all possible diagrams based on the new starting fret.

  • Playback of fretboard or chord symbol formerly only played the chord symbol using a user designated octave. Now if a fretboard is present, the actual fretboard will be played, thus different diagrams of the same chord will sound different.

  • Playback of fretboard vs. chord symbol when dragging over with the Virtual Pointer or tapping directly on the element in the score will now play either the chord symbol or the actual fretboard. Scrubbing and full playback will now play the fretboard if they are present.

  • A noticeable delay of up to two seconds when first sounding notes has been removed.

  • The action menu “Transpose Notes” has been removed. The transpose panel from the main menu is much more complete.

  • Measure stack playback from the Apple Pencil barrel double tap shortcut now puts up a playhead and scrolls the music appropriately.

  • The entire beat sounds when adding a new note in sliding palette mode, instead of just the new note about to be added, so if you are adding to an existing chord, for example, the entire chord will sound with the new note.

  • When adding new notes from the notes palette, notes continue to sound until cancelled or the pitch changes.

  • Added an “All Notes Off” option in the Action menu in case of stuck sounding notes.

  • A “Don’t Change Chord Durations” option has been added to the notes palette. When adding to existing chords: the existing chord’s duration is used instead of the palette’s duration setting.

  • The Note palette has been redesigned to make the the new options clearer and better organized.

  • Fretboard note labels along the bottom of each diagram has been optimized to avoid crowding by using superscripts for accidentals.

  • Added parentheses around the octave designation in the Virtual Pointer when displaying the note passed over.

  • Added the display of chord name to Virtual Pointer when passing over a chord symbol or fretboard.

  • When using the note palette to insert new notes in static mode (sliding mode is OFF), the right side of the pitch rectangle now shows the actual note that will replace the main center note if toggled instead of the letter ’T’.


Bugs Fixed

  • Fixed an issue when in dark mode, printing was white notes against a black background. Now printing color is correct.

  • Fixed an issue when using context sensitive menu’s octave up or down in rapid succession could continue sounding notes indefinitely.

  • Edit menu now resizes properly to visible sections.

  • Many other improvements.

Known Issues

  • Printing in landscape mode on two sides incorrectly flips the reverse side.

  • Searching in the reference manual finds the correct page and highlights the search term, but does not scroll to the first occurrence on that page.

  • Playhead does not start from a dragged position in presentation view as it does is in the other two views.

  • Pausing playback before a repeat then continuing always executes the repeat even if play should go on.

March 22nd, 2022

Features Added

  • Note palette now has two new buttons: Sliding and No Chord (an icon). When Sliding is ON, move to any location in the same staff and system simply by sliding your pencil right or left while maintaining pressure. As you slide, if the new note will be added to an existing note (making or adding to a chord), the entire beat will become highlighted. When the No Chord button is ON, notes cannot be added to existing chords - useful if notes are so close together that inserting in between notes is instead, adding to/making a chord. Cancel Sliding mode by moving above or below the staff beyond a number of ledger lines (now a preference that can be set in the Actions menu: Advanced Settings: Sliding Palette).

  • In the original, static palette note entry (Sliding is OFF), the rectangular pitch indicator now changes color to signify that a new note will add to/make a chord.


Bugs Fixed

  • Fixed an issue in dark mode where after selecting a button in the notes or expressions palettes and moving to another button, the old button was not redrawing properly.

  • Fixed an issue when selecting items of different types (slur, then chord, etc.) sometimes wouldn’t select.

  • Now turning on text and tempo layers if editing in the lyric manager.

  • Fixes crash on undo after trying to insert a rest over an existing note with the palette.

  • Fixed an issue when a right side menu was down (Edit, Note Palette, or Expressions Palette), and the Next measure navigation button was used to go to the end of the score in scroll view, the last measure was not completely visible.

Known Issues

  • Printing in landscape mode on two sides incorrectly flips the reverse side.

  • Added a fretboard baseline offset preference in Advanced Settings.

  • Added a chord count to information statistics.

Known Issues
