Defining frame constraints

You can determine on which sides of frames you want to apply constraints.

Prerequisite

If you want to define the constraints of frames on a master page, you have opened the master page in the master page editor.

Procedure

  1. In the Engrave toolbox, click Frames to show the Formatting panel.
  2. In the music area, select the frame whose constraints you want to define.
  3. In the Constraints section of the Formatting panel, click the constraint that corresponds to the side of the frame that you want to change.

    Figure: Locked constraint

    Figure: Unlocked constraint
  4. Move the unlocked side of the frame to the position you want.
    Tip

    You can also enter fixed values for Height or Width in the Frames group of the Properties panel.
