How to create a Bass tab

[alain_désilets]

I am trying to create a tab for a bass score.

How do I do that?

I tried changing the settings of the guitar as follows:

* Guitar | Setup
* Clicked on the 4 strings icon
* Changed the pitch of the 4th string to G
* OK

But then I still see a staff with 6 strings.

What am I doing wrong?

There are two, umm... let's call them "channels" for each score. There is one guitar-channel, where all guitartabs for the song/score is, and one bass-channel, where the basstab is. When you start the program, the guitar-channel is currently on the screen, to access the bass-channel, click on one of the icons above. The icons are music markers that I don't know the names of, but anyway these buttons have a blue background. The left one represents the guitar-channel, and the right one the bass-channel. Click on the right one to open the bass-channel.
The guitar- and bass-channels are played simultaneosly when pressing the play-button, so if you make a repeat-bar in the guitar-channel, you might want to make one in the bass-channel as well.
 
Hope that helps!/SWEDISH METAL \m/
