Applying 8va and playback
See attached file?
Is 8va playback supported? I can't get it to work in the attached file. Is it possible to allow 8va playback of individual notes.

Yes playback of 8va is supported and works on a single note if you use a standard staff.
In the case of standard staff linked to tab, the tab is played currently (in 2.0.1) and 8va are not supported in tabs so it will not play... 2.0.2 will play the standard staff and it should work.
So how is 8va applied for single notes as there isn't currently a dedicated symbol. Will you be able to use staff text?

Just use a normal 8va line, double click it and use shift + left arrow to reduce it to one note.
I mean chord, no note btw. You want the 8va for a single note?

No, I meant chord.

Something like this?

Yes that's it. So, to clarify, 8va playback is coded only into the specific palette line symbols provided (and none others).
In reply to Yes that's it. So, to by geetar
Yes. Only the ottava line.
For a single note, if you want to use text instead, you could fake it by entering the note where it "sounds" then go to the palette, check fix the note line and move it to the right graphical place.

Could you explain what the "fix to line" command is generally used for? Nothing in the handbook as far as I can see.

It's generally used for slash notation where a slash is displayed and not played.

Specifically, the "fix to line" is to control which line the slash marks appear on. It is then "fixed" in that it won't be affected by transposition. It's not something that most people would normally set themselves; the slash notation commands handle this for you. But it's provided as an override for people who wish to do non-standard things.
Apply the 8---¬ then [Shift][left-arrow] to shrink it to one chord duration. In in Inspector, un-check "Numbers only" and "Line visible"
You can mute TAB notes by right-click, Select All Similar Elements in Same Stave and un-checking the Play box in Inspector.
