Modifying Page Attributes

brakb...@gmail.com (Brak Bnei) — Thu, 24 May 2012 07:34:03 UT

I know there is a way to change the size of the tab, both the line
spacing and the numbers. But is there a way to do the same to the
staff and notes? Or a way to make the gap between the staff and tab
smaller?

Can't write in the score itself, only as a tab?

Hi, I'm a complete newbie to this and am probably missing something
massively obvious but I can't seem to find anything about this. I want
to convert a piece of sheet music I have into a tab to make it easier
to read (I'm not very good with sheet music), anyway I can't seem to
write into the score, and can only write the music as a tab? Can you

time signature change

jccjoa...@gmail.com (Joanne) — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 18:50:37 UT

Hi all,

I am new to Power-tab (actually, i am new to making my own tab...)
This is probably a really stupid question... but is there a way to
change the time signature during the song? I am trying to tab a song
from a piano sheet music and in the middle of the song, they change
the time signature...

There doesn't seem to be any where to get a clean copy of power tab.
Every site wants to saddle you with PDF reader. Does anybody know
where to get a copy of power tab editor without spyware PDF reader?

insert notes

dmcen...@centurytel.net (dmcentee@centurytel.net) — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 16:49:25 UT

HI,
New user question.
I want to insert a few notes into the middle of a song; but I don't
see any way to do that other than to place the cursor at the point of
interest, cut everything to the end of the song, insert my notes and
then past the part that was cut.
Sometimes pasting adds a music bar and then I can't add notes to the

Tabbing out harmonies.

baker.bron...@yahoo.com (baker.bronson@yahoo.com) — Thu, 01 Sep 2011 21:53:10 UT

I know how to write harmonies.but when I tab them out,they don't play
at the same time. Only one note plays. Is there a way to hear my
harmony,because I've seen people tab out rhythm and lead parts,and I'm
basically doing the same thing. Can you help me out?

Blank Space

07gibso...@gmail.com (Brian) — Sun, 12 Jun 2011 16:58:29 UT

While editing a tab, I ended up with a bunch of white space between
1/8 notes. I know how to highlight the area but I can't figure out how
to delete or remove the unnecessary space. The problem was caused when
I changed a whole note to an 1/8 note. The not changed but the spacing
didn't.

Thanks in advance,

Helloe everyone, I am new to using Power Tab and really like it. I
tabbed out about 3/4 of a song the other night and saved the file many
times. I went to open it today and it has nothing in it. I tried the
recovery option with the same results. Any help appreciated. Also does
anyone know how to move the tab sections down on the page to make room

I like Powertab after only one day, but I have a couple questions for a "Power" user if you don't mind

jdbon...@gmail.com (J) — Tue, 11 Jan 2011 15:26:34 UT

Hi, I have been using Powertab for a day and it's going well, I've
already done two songs, and they are both complicated songs.

My only trouble has mostly to do with ties. Are there rules about
when you can and cannot use them? And I find that the tie only shows
up on the upper staff. Can I control this behavior? Also, I sometimes

SONG TITLE & CREDITS PRINTING OFF PAGE!!

sko...@hotmail.com (SKOVILS) — Tue, 26 Oct 2010 03:49:06 UT

Having an issue with the printing.

Currently archiving my own music and when i print, everything is fine,
looks great... besides the title and the credits printing to the far
right!

It's probably a good inch to the right... very frustrating.

I am operating on Windows Vista.

I looked at the solve on here but it's directed at an older Windows
