TablEdit Users Say:

"Excellent program. Well worth the $55. I'm working on a song from the Dixie Chicks called Cowboy Take Me Away. The sheet music I purchased was a half step up from the original and it just didn't sound right. Your program helped me with the first few bars, and I was able to transpose it back down to F#. Very Cool."

TablEdit features a Multi Document Interface (MDI) allowing several windows to be handled simultaneously. Each window can contain a single *.tef file.

TablEdit does not open a new window unless the current tablature has been modified or if you expressly request that it do so. By default, the new file is opened in the currently active window and, thus, replaces the file that was previously occupying the window.
 
 
In order to force a file to be opened in a new window:  
 
create a new window by selecting {File}{New} before opening or importing a file  
or  
select the "New window" check box in the "Open" dialog  
or  
open several files from the list in the "Open" dialog in a single operation by selecting them successively while keeping [Ctrl] held down.  
 
Close  
 
Closes the active window.  
 
Cascade  
 
Displays all the currently open windows in a single stack with only the title bar and the far left edge of the bottomed windows visible,  
 
Tile vertical/horizontal  
 
Splits the working screen vertically or horizontally (depending on which item you select) into enough sections to display all of the currently open tablatures. Unless you work with a large screen at a fairly high resolution, two is about the practical limit.  
 
Beneath these standard items, you'll find a list of all currently open windows. Clicking on any item in the list will bring the corresponding window to the top or simply activate the corresponding tablature if one of the display modes described above are in use.  
 
Note: When multiple windows are open, keeping [Ctrl] held down links all the windows to the main scroll bar, allowing you to scroll through them all at the same time. This allows easy comparison between tablatures.
