Stems

To flip a stem

1. Click the Simple Entry tool , and select a note. (You can Option-click to select a particular note).
2. Press the L key to freeze the stem in the opposite direction. When a stem is “frozen” up or down, it’s no longer free to change directions if it gets transposed. To restore a stem to its “floating” status, position the insertion bar on the note and press option-L.
