Working with Text in Smoosic
Working with text in Smoosic is a bit of a different experience than editing music notation. While you are entering the text, normal navigation with the cursor keys and music entry is suspended, and only the text you are entering is fully visible. There is a dialog box with a few limited options, such as exiting text-entry mode. This is true of text block, lyrics, and chords. Once you finish entering the text, you get a different dialog box similar to the one you can use to edit modifiers such as slurs, crescendos, etc.
Text blocks, also called 'Score text' because it is not tied to a musical element, is free-form text that can be placed anywhere. It can be used for titles, credits, etc. It can also be set up for pagination using escape sequences. ** Unicode characters are also allowed.
You create a text block by selecting the big 'T' on the text ribbon, with the cursor symbol (diagram). You enter the text as you like it (only a single line is supported right now, if you want multiple lines you have to stack them).
