To dot a note

2. Hold down Alt and click a note to select it. You can also press the right and left arrow keys to move forward or back through notes (see Simple Entry Tool).
3. Press the period (.) key. The note is now dotted. By pressing the period key again, you’ll add a second dot, and so on. You can add up to ten dots to a note.
