I have version 2.3.0.004 and I haven't succeed to move a single note in chord horizontally! In earlier version or when I had earlier version that was possible.

Antti,

All the notes in a chord always move horizontally together with the chord. If you want to move a single note, but not the other notes in the chord, you must first separate the notes from the chord. Select the "chord" tool from the green toolbar, left-click on the chord, then press "delete". Click a "note" tool in the green toolbar and you can move each note separately. You can click the "chord" tool again and make a new chord. I hope this answers your question.

Yes, Itried to make a chord which included seconds but it looked more like cluster. Finally found a way: I took "TEXT" and pressed "K" with musetteMusic-font size 18 or 20, voila! It was there! Only thing, Musette doesn't play it. ;-)

Did you try note stems in opposite directions - stem up for the upper note of the second, and stem down for the lower note?

Oh yes! It works very well especially in chorus parts. But, I don't know, pianists might keep it too complicated.
Anyhow I've had Musette only a couple of weeks and I have much to learn..
Thank you maestro. Musette is great!
(ps. Its good that I have got dictionary. I allmost wrote grate :D )
