MuseScore Help

[Oritendo]

A topic for those who use MuseScore and need help from others.

I got a question:

How come I can only do 12 bar things and then they wont let me do the arrangement any longer? (did that make sense?)

[Brassman388]

Are you using a free trial?

[Dudeman]

You can add more. Just hit ctrl+shift+b or click "Measures->Append Measures" in the create tab.

[Oritendo]

thanks dudeman!!  yes brassman, I am using the free version.

[WiiMan96]

The full version of MuseScore is free, right?

[Oritendo]

yeah, I guess so.

[WiiMan96]

Coolbeans, I'll try it out sometime.

I have another question: OK, thanks for telling me how to add those bar things, but what if I have too many, how do I delete them?

[Dudeman]

Simply select the measures you wish to delete and hit the "delete" button.

[Oritendo]

how do I select it, and wheres the delet button? ADD: BTW thanks for replying fast!

[Dudeman]

Click on the first measure that you want to delete (it needs to be in treble clef), then shift+click on the last measure you want to delete (it needs to be in base clef). The delete button should be on the right side of the keyboard, next to the letters, numbers, and symbols.

so i've done whats in bold, but what keys are next to the delet button?

[Dudeman]

The section of keys that delete is in looks like this:
 _____  _____ ______
|Insert|Home |Page   |
|_____|_____|Up____|
|Delete| End |Page    |
|______|____|Down__|

[Oritendo]

excuse me for double posting.

Anyways, can someone explain what a metronome is, and how to put it in an arrangement/composition with MuseScore? Thanks!
