To add a note to a cue:

  1. Open the Add window menu, tap Common and then tap Sequence Sheet. The sequence 1 opens.

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.

To change the row height manually:

  1. Tap MA. The Sequence Sheet Settings opens.
  2. Tap the Mask - tab.
  3. Tap Line Height. The line height of the sequence sheet changes.
Hint:
When Line Height is set to Auto, the row 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.
