This is how adding articulations to a single note works currently:
1. Select a note
2. Open the articulations palette
3. Double click articulation sign
4. Now, focus is on the new sign. Pressing the right and left arrow keys has no effect!

This is how I feel it should be handled:
1. Select a note
2. Open the articulations palette
3. Double click articulation sign
4. Now, focus is on the note the articulation was added to. Pressing the right and left arrow keys moves focus and you can add new articulations without having to move the mouse away!

In the current development version, if you press right, it will select the current note, and if you press rightagain, it will select the next note.

Hmmm..that's not how it woks for me. Using 02d7b91 I can select a note, double-click on articulation, use rt arrow to take me back to the note, then continue to use rt arrow to continue to the next note.

This sequence no longer works with dynamics, however. After placing dynamic, rt arrow adjusts position of dynamic, rather than returning to note.

Yes, this works in 2.0, but doesn't work in 1.3. Since no more fixes are forthcoming for 1.3, you will have to wait for 2.0 to come out.

Thanks :).

Since there will be no more fixes in the 1.x series, are you able to try a nightly build or source code for 2.0?

EDIT: Ah, schepers kind-of beat me to it :). Might be good to try anyway incase there happens to be OS-specific issues.
