#ANTHEMSCORE SET PATH TO MUSESCORE FREE#
If this doesn't make sense, then feel free to ask questions. Click a note that's been moved and you'll see that MuseScore says it's on the other staff. As I said above, cross-staff notation only gives the appearance that a note is in the other staff, but MuseScore still knows it is in the original staff. When notes are selected, they are changed to the color of their voices. If you select a section of notes, either by selecting an entire measure or using shift+click to select a group of notes, all notes in every voice actually on that staff are selected. Moving a note with cross staff notation will move the entire chord. This will give the appearance that a note is in the other staff on the appropriate line or space. If you want to move a note using cross staff notation, that's also easy, select that note and press ctrl+shift+arrow. This copy includes rests, which will replace anything that exists in the destination in the same voice.Ĭopy and paste between voices is easy. Keep in mind that if the staff has another voice on it, it will be copied also unless you use the filter selection (F6) to disable copying it. If you want to copy say a D4 followed by an F4 from the treble to the bass, select the notes, copy and paste. Once you've figured out how you want to modify the score to make room for the note, then cut and paste works fine. So, it will be up to you to do the appropriate entering of rests in another voice and/or shortening existing notes to make room for the notes you want to move. These kinds of decisions require human ingenuity to resolve - MuseScore can't know how you'd want to modify the score to make room for the note you wish to paste. Unless you decide to change the existing note in the RH to an eighth. Similarly, if you have two eighth notes on beat one in the LH, you can't move them to the RH if there is a quarter note there - again, not without using a second voice. But you could change the half to a quarter, and now it would be possible using only one voice.

Not without first entering a quarter rest into a a second voice, anyhow. Consider, if you have a note on beat 2 in the LH, you can't move it to the RH if there is currently a half note on beat 1. I agree it's obvious to look at it which notes you might want to move, but anyhow, it's certainly possible to move notes using cut and paste if it is musically possible.
