Paint Brush Tools - FreeHand MusicPad Pro+ User Manual

Paint Brush Tools

Two paint brush tools "erase" areas by covering them with the background color. If you
change the background color anything covered up remains covered up. One paint brush
tool leaves the staff lines uncovered and the other covers up everything.
Note: These tools are do not function if you are using a transposable score downloaded
from the FreeHand Music store. The funcationality is there on a bitmapped encrypted
score.
Leaving the Staff Lines
When you need to cover unwanted marks but leave the staff lines untouched, use the
right paint brush icon, the one that shows the staff lines. It erases the notes, but leaves
the staff lines untouched. However, it does erase the notes!
To use the tool
1
Select the paint brush icon that shows the staff lines from the Annotation Toolbar.
A pen displays in place of the cursor.
2
Drag the pen over the mark you want to erase.
Before
Using the Background Pen
You can use the background pen to eliminate marks that you do not want on your score.
The background pen is commonly used to remove marks that were added when you
scanned the score. It also can be used to remove three-hole punch marks that may have
been scanned with your score or to cover anything that you want with the same color as
the background.
