Selecting individual notation symbols

To select a symbol (notes, rests, expressions, text, and lyrics), click it using the selection tool. Positioning the cursor over a symbol changes it to the drag/select cursor.

Selected notes and rests display as outlines.

Other selections display either as outlines or by acquiring position indicators.
