Sorry if this was requested before.
In the Midi Editor view and main screen one can move in the timeline with Alt+mousewheel. There is no way to do this in the notation view.
Can it be implemented?
Works fine here in v5.50pre11, Win 10

Ah, sorry, got it: I had to enable the action "Notation: Continuous view always, regardless of zoom level" to make Alt+moushweel scroll throught the timeline (or having 2 or more tracks in simultaneous display).
Thanks.
Is it possible to put repeat sign on barlines? " : "
Is it possible to draw 1______ 2_______ (1st repeat, 2nd repeat) over staves?
Is it possible to change chord fonts and is it possible to make them bigger?
If these are possible can someone tell me how? IT IS URGENT.
is there a way to select some midi notes via staff notation view and have Reaper auto-add 8va marking notation? or do we need to do it manually note by note?
i was trying to select a few measures and have reaper 'add 8va notation' and re-write pitches down accordingly w/ the 8va line?
sorry, let me clarify. i would like to select a range and tell reaper "if notes are above or below X and Y, please octave them -1/+1" etc.
that would save incredible amounts of time
i guess i could use the midi filter and set a range, show only, select - apply octave notation?

Might be possible via a script if it's not built in. I'll add it to my list

Bloody brilliant, sir
For now, yes I have winged it. I had to do a few passes in MIDI Filter, select a range of notes, and only show them, then select all apply octave notation. It works but, many steps.
Thanks!!

I remember seeing this before, but can't remember the response, and can't find it now.
In Sibelius, it was possible to change the background 'paper' behind the notes, to make reading easier on your eyes (the pure white screen is killing me, especially if I alt-tab from a dark background into the pure-white score-view.

White-on-black notation would be even better!
Maybe it could be themed?

Could you make it possible in further release to get the Accidentals displayed shifted instead of been all on the same line, it makes the reading difficult that way.
Maybe. I've looked into different themes, but none seem to give a dark / black notation background.
I have all software on my computer "dark themed", meaning dark background with white text. The only thing not doing this is reaper notation; plus I've finally got the notation editor full-screen (if anyone wants to know how, let me know) so I just have a gigantic glaringly white page.

I want to know :-)

To me personally, the main problem that prevents REAPER's notation view from appearing "professional", is the awkward placement of stems.
At some zoom levels, stems are rendered a little too much to the left, so the stems are either displaced from the noteheads, or the notes look like lollipops:
Example 1:
Example 2:
A related niggle is the thickness of stems versus the thickness of the sides of the half note noteheads. At some zoom levels, the stems are noticeably thicker, so they cannot fit nicely together:
Hello. I'm missing the glissando mark.
Do I understand correctly that the function "phrase/slur" is meant for all kinds of notehead-to-notehead marks? The problem is that this function only works for one notehead in a chord.
A glissando or any other note-connecting mark really does not need a slur in proper notation.
Also the arpeggio mark seems to be missing. It connects one notehead to another on the same chord.
It came to my attention that noteheads are drawn behind their stems in some instances. When a single note is on a stem, the stem is rendered in front of it, while when multiple notes are on a stem, the stem is correctly rendered behind.
Edit: looking closer, the bottom-most notehead on the chord stem is also rendered behind the stem
in the track list pane of the score editor I selected my strings tracks because i want to edit them together, but i'm not allowed to record arm just one (for example to work on what i want to write before writing it).
If i do select one i can record-arm it but that means losing sight of the others.
I believe this is a bug or maybe a "non" feature?
thanks a lot to the developers for your hard work.
It is not easy the video so I will the send 4 images with different zoom.
A)There is a note that is misplaced.
B)That note is in its place now. Accidentals start moving awkward
C)Accidentals getting worse.
D)Notes out of the staff too close, they share "the line". Flag of some quavers too high (touching the head of the note). Some accidentals completely misplaced.
Besides the thickness ot the lines [which indicate the position of the note out of the score] varies according to the zoom, however the 5 lines of the score behave properly in every case. Finally the beam that joins notes doesn't behave properly in some levels of zoom.
My English is very poor (if I don't make myself understood just tell me). I hope it helps
Of course, you are right. Depending on the level of zoom some things work properly but ... other don't (and viceversa). Some of the issues are aesthetic and other ones affect the possibility of editing.
From my humble point of view this is a not desirable behaviour, anyway I am just letting the Devs Know in case they consider it relevant. In fact I am just trying notation this week in Reaper, all this is not a problem to me because I have other programs which do it perfectly and then export to Reaper.
Best would be of course if Reaper would allow mup text file export! Not for editing but for printing, creating pdf files.
I am thinking of following workflow, after each switching from midi editor to arrange, you would trigger some custom action which would export to mup text file, convert to pdf, display updated pdf, on second screen for example. So you do your normal editing, but in parallel you get automatically all score update on second screen, in best possible musical form, kicking away anything else like Finale or Sibelius or lilypond.
Copy this text into notepad and save the file as a .ahk, then download the program AutoHotKey and open the file with AutoHotkey. When in notation view, press either ctrl-alt-F or ctrl-alt-G and it will full-screen the notation.
Code:
; Borderless full screen CTRL+ALT+F
^!f::
WinGetTitle, currentWindow, A
IfWinExist %currentWindow%
{
WinSet, Style, ^0xC00000 ; hides the title bar
WinMove, , , 0, 0, 1920, 1080
}
return
; Borderless full screen CTRL+ALT+G
; Some games don't work with the above script, so there's an alternative
^!g::
WinGetTitle, currentWindow, A
IfWinExist %currentWindow%
{
WinSet, Style, -0x400000 ; hides the dialog frame
WinSet, Style, -0x40000 ; hides the sizebox/thickframe
WinSet, Style, -0x800000 ; hides the thin-line border
WinSet, Style, -0xC00000 ; hides the title bar
WinMove, , , 0, 0, 1920, 1080 ; moves the entire window to 0,0 i.e. upper left corner.
}
return
I wish I could bundle that function into my ReaNote action list... but I guess impossible without Auto-Hotkey. (Note, there was a discussion before about using Auto-Hotkey for full-screen, the script didn't work with notation, but the above script does).
Why not simply using its compiled .exe version? You could use it then in custom actions as well.
For the interested you can add as many hotkeys as you want:
PHP Code:
+F1:: ; shift-F1 will do same
F1:: ; F1 will do same
^a:: ; ctrl-a will do same
^!g::
{
; any code
return
}
Are you the original script writer? (sorry, I'd forgotten where I got the script from). How/where is the compiled version? Having it as a custom action would be awesome.
Nice, so I should put the .exe in \AppData\Roaming\REAPER\Scripts with all the .lua scripts, right? (wonder if it could be made into a .lua and if that'd somehow be better). I wouldn't compile the *full script*, right? Because if it's an action, the actual key would be set in the action list?
Personally, with the above listed action, I find the second script (ctrl-alt-G) works while the first (ctrl-alt-F) doesn't, so in the action list, maybe we only need the second script.
Also, it still seems impossible to get rid of the docker/file menu, yes?
