Entering Work / Movement / Part metadata
- workNumber is the number of the larger work (e.g. 8—for "The Four Seasons," Op. 8, by Vivaldi).
- workTitle is the title of the larger work (e.g "The Four Seasons,").
- movementNumber is the number of the movement in the larger work (e.g. 3 for Autumn).
- movementTitle is the title of the movement in the larger work (e.g.“Autumn”).
It is customary, when using the New Score Wizard, to create a work with the movementTitle as title (even though it ends up in workTitle then) and, directly after creating the score, amending this information in the Score Properties dialogue.
Every part additionally has the following meta tag, generated and filled on part creation:
- partName: The name of the part as given on part creation (which is also used to fill the corresponding part name text in the top vertical frame—be aware that later changes to one are not reflected in the other).
Header/Footer
To show the content of one or more meta tags in a header or footer for your score/part:
- Make sure that the correct score or instrument part is the active tab;
- From the menu, select Format → Style... → Header, Footer:
If you hover with your mouse over the Header or Footer text region, a list of macros will appear, showing their meaning, as well as the existing meta tags and their content.
- Add tags (e.g. $:workTitle:) and macros (e.g. $M) to the appropriate boxes, as required;
- Click Apply to see how the header or footer looks in the score. Make corrections to the dialog if required;
- If an instrument part is in the active tab, click Apply to all parts, if you want to apply these settings to all the score parts;
- Click OK to assign the header or footer and exit the dialog.
