| To open this dialog in order to edit the title information for your tablature, select {Score}{Title Information}, click on the left side of the status bar at the bottom of the TablEdit window or press [Ctrl]+[I].
|
|
|
| The dialog serves several purposes. There is the obvious fact that it provides information concerning the complete title of the piece being written or transcribed. It also provides space for the identification of the original composer and the date of composition. It's no more than common courtesy to give credit to the original artist or composer whose work you've arranged or documented if the information is available to you.
|
| By default, the Title and Author appear centered at the top of each printed page. Comments are right justified. But these are just the default values, almost anything is possible by customizing the Page Layout.
|
| The {File}{Options...}>Fonts dialog allows the font used for each field to be customized individually.
|
| TablEdit automatically enters the name of the registered user in the "Comments:" portion of the dialog as "TablEdited by xxx" . You've done a lot of work to produce a tablature for the pleasure and benefit of others and you deserve credit for it. Identifying yourself gives others the opportunity to contact you if they have questions about the arrangement, musical sources or simply because they want to exchange views with someone who enjoys the same styles of music as themselves. You could, for instance, add your e-mail address next to your name. This is also a good place to indicate the name of the arranger/performer of the piece or that of the original composer if it's not your own work.
|
| Some TablEditors also use the "Comments" box to indicate copyright and discographical information. Others prefer to include this information in the "Notes" dialog. In either case, this information should always be included, if available.
|
| [>>] allows you to toggle back and forth between this dialog and the "Notes" dialog.
|
| The buttons marked "ABC", "abc" and "Abc" on the bottom left-hand side of the dialog allow you to change the format of text in any of the editable fields. The text to be reformatted must first be selected as a block. "ABC" reformats the selected text to all UPPER CASE, "abc" to all lower case letters and "Abc" to lower case letters with UPPER CASE initials.
