Multi-Line Editor

  • The text editor in notes is a multi-line editor. This means, multiple lines can be added by pressing Shift + Please when the text editor is open.
  • In the Mask-tab in the sequence sheet settings, tap Line Height to adjust the line height. When set to Auto, the row automatically adjusts its height based on the number of lines. For more information about the sequence sheet settings, see Sequence Sheet.
The height of the rows is adjusted dynamically when Line Height is set to Auto.
