Now we'll take you through some of the most 
common types of text you can add to your score,

including lyrics, and we'll 
show you how to add chords too.

When you’re first creating a project, 
you can press the "Next" button down here,

which takes you to a section where
you can enter the title of the score,

the composer or arranger, the subtitle, 
and any lyricist or copyright information.

By pressing "Done", you can see 
that the information you filled in

is already positioned on your score.

If you’ve already created a score 
and want to add this information later,

you can quickly do this using the "Add" button, 
and selecting one of the options in "Text".

Lyrics can also be added this way. 
First select a note or rest,

go back to the add button 
and select Lyrics.

This now adds a lyric text item 
under your note.

You can do this more quickly by using the 
shortcut Ctrl + L on Windows

or Command + L on a Mac.

When adding lyrics, you can press the 
Spacebar to move to the next note

to continue entering your text.

If you want to create a hyphen between 
words or syllables, press the Hyphen key,

which also moves you to the next note. 
If you want to create an extender line,

you can enter an underscore by 
using the shortcut Shift + Hyphen.

So now that I’ve entered a few lyrics, I want 
to copy and paste them a few bars later.

To do this, hold the Shift key and drag 
with your mouse to select all the lyrics.

Then copy them, and select another note, 
and press paste.

If you want to set an elision that 
connects two syllables under one note,

then open the "Properties" panel, 
select the "Special characters" button,

and choose from one of the three elision 
options found in the common symbols window.

Lastly, to set chords on your score, 
select a note or rest,

click the "Add" button and choose 
"Chord Symbol". To do this quickly,

use the shortcut Ctrl K on Windows 
or Command K on a Mac.

When entering your chords, you can again press 
Spacebar to quickly move to the next duration.

Chord symbols also cleverly recognise 
different characters. For example,

you can press uppercase B, followed 
by lowercase b, to create a B-flat symbol.

Here, I'm entering D, 
hashtag, zero, seven,

to create a 
D-sharp half-diminished seventh chord.

And here, I'm entering F, hashtag, lowercase m, 
seven, bracket, lowercase b, five, bracket,

to produce an 
F sharp minor seven (flat 5) symbol.
