Removing stem direction changes

You can remove changes to the directions of stems and revert stems to their default directions.

Procedure

  1. Select the notes whose stem direction changes you want to remove. You can do this in Write mode and Engrave mode.
  2. Choose Edit > Stem > Remove Forced Stem. You can also choose this option from the context menu.

Result

All stem direction changes are removed from the selected notes. The stems of the selected notes revert to their default directions.

Note

Alternatively, you can change the stem direction to the opposite direction. However, notes with forced stems do not change automatically if, for example, you later change their pitch.
