Title Area

The title area is located at the top of the first page, above the staves. The fields to display the score title, subtitle, composer, lyricist, maqam and usul are in this area. To change the height of the title area, enter a new value in the Height box.

To show the title, subtitle, composer, lyricist, maqam and usul, check the respective boxes. To hide any of those fields, uncheck the respective checkbox.

To change any of this information, select the Text tool and use the Floating Text sub-­tool (see Floating Text).

Mus2 determines the layout and flow of the notes, and accordingly, the number of pages, in your score automatically. If you need extra pages at the end of your score, for example, to provide extra information, enter the number of pages needed in the Extra Pages box.
