Text repeats are similar to expressions
in that a single text repeat can be assigned to multiple staves (see
Repeats (barlines
and text indications)), which has some implications for linked
parts.
When you first add a text repeat (Fine,
To Coda, D.S.
al Coda, etc), positioning changes to that item in the score
apply to all parts. If a text repeat or bracket is repositioned in a part, the change does not affect other
instances in the score or other parts, and future positioning changes
to that text repeat in the score do not apply to that part. However, if
a text repeat is repositioned in a part containing multiple instances
of that text repeat, all instances in the part are broken (and all instances
of that text repeat in the part continue to move uniformly).
Broken text repeats in parts can be relinked
to the score at any time (see Relinking
part items to the score).
The “Allow individual edits per staff” setting
in the Text Repeat Assignment
dialog box, Backward
Repeat Bar Assignment dialog box, and Create Ending dialog box allows
you to reposition, hide, or show an instance of a repeat marking without
applying the same changes to other instances of that repeat marking on
other instrument staves.
- If Allow
Individual Edits per Staff is checked for a repeat marking in the score,
every instance of that repeat marking in the score can be edited independently
- linked instances of that repeat marking in parts continue to respond
to score changes accordingly.
- Checking
this box for a repeat marking in a part breaks the positioning and show/hide
link for all instances of that repeat marking in the part - each instance
of that repeat marking in the part can be edited independently. All other
linked instances of that expression in other parts continue to move in
uniform with edits made to that repeat marking in the score. (All repeat
marking in the score turn orange indicating this repeat marking has been
broken in at least one part).
- Broken instances
of a repeat marking in a part containing multiple staves can be edited
uniformly or independently depending on this setting. However, note that
changing the state of this check box always breaks the link for all instances
of the repeat marking in the part.
