Position items graphically in the Score Editor in Logic Pro for Mac
You can position items graphically to improve the readability of your score (creating space for a grace note, for example). There are three ways to position items:
Using the Layout tool: The Layout tool is used to graphically move events in the Score Editor, in order to optimize the display without altering the timing of MIDI events.
Using the Event inspector: You can change the graphical position of Score Editor symbols and text in the Event inspector by editing the Vertical Position and Horizontal Position parameters.
Using key commands: You can use key commands to move any score symbol that can be positioned independently of notes or staffs, as well as text events and chord symbols. These functions don’t alter the bar position of the affected symbols and text events. They alter the Horizontal Position and Vertical Position parameters by ±1.
Tip: To adjust a number of selected symbols to the same height above (or below) the staff, use the Align Object Positions Vertically key command.
