Select, copy, paste and transpose in the editor
Pro members can now select beats in the editor, copy and paste them (into another score too), transpose them, move notes to another string, change many notes at once, and add repeat-bar signs.
Select beats (Pro)
While editing, hold Shift and press the left or right arrow, drag over the score, or Shift+click where the selection should end. Ctrl+A selects the whole part. The selected beats are tinted, and the line under the toolbar says how many there are.
Copy and paste
- Ctrl+C, Ctrl+X and Ctrl+V copy, cut and paste, or use the buttons on the toolbar.
- A paste goes over the notes from the cursor on. Insert (Ctrl+Shift+V) puts the notes in instead, moving the rest of the bar on.
- Set the number next to the buttons to paste the same riff several times in a row.
- You can paste into another of your scores too: copy in one, open the other, paste.
Change many notes at once
- Transpose with Ctrl+↑ and Ctrl+↓, a semitone at a time (add Shift for an octave). Notes stay on their string where they can, and move to the nearest one where they can't.
- Move a note to another string at the same pitch with Alt+↑ and Alt+↓.
- Techniques and durations apply to every selected note: select a riff and press P to palm-mute all of it, or + to make every note half as long. Clear techniques takes them all off.
- Delete clears the selected notes, Ctrl+Delete removes the beats, and Ctrl+Shift+Delete removes the bars.
Each of these is undone in one step with Ctrl+Z.
Repeat-bar signs
Put a sign on a bar that says "play the bar before again", or the two bars before. It plays the repeated bar, and Guitar Pro shows the sign too. Guitar Pro files that have these signs now play them.
