Step by step

  1. Click the meter number, the clef or the key signature spot at the start of a system.
  2. Pick the value in the menu: meter (4/4, 3/4, 6/8…), clef (treble, guitar treble, bass, alto or tenor) or key (from C♭ to C♯). For clef and key, confirm with Apply.
  3. The change holds from that measure until the next change, so you can switch meter or key mid-piece.

Tip: If the figures you already wrote do not fit the new meter, the editor asks you to remove or move some before changing it.
