Arrow keys only change notepad
This problem just started with the latest release. I cannot change pitches with the arrow keys. If I select 5 noteheads then try to use the arrow keys to change their pitch, all it does is change the notepad from a note to an X. What am I missing? Thank you in advance.

Check your shortcut definitions for Up and Down:

It's possibly worth clearing the shortcuts for Move pitch selection up and Move pitch selection down, and then redefining those two shortcuts with the same shortcut keys.

Thank you - tried all that, and then re-started the computer, same result. Just changes thew noteheads. I'm thinking there's a general setting that is off, can't find scroll lock, but maybe something else.
If the use of arrow keys changes a notehead into an x, be sure you are not entering percussion:

If a general setting is off, try a factory re-set. See:

That's what it was, it was a percussion part. Thanks for diagnosing.
