Appoggiaturas in Notepad

(1/2) > >>

Yeah I know appoggiatura is a long word, and honestly I dont know exactly what it means. Im pretty sure its the smaller short notes played before another note, where you play the first one really quickly. Not a very good description, but is it possible to do this on Finale Notepad? I tried putting a 32nd note there instead, and it sounds right, but it messes up the measures timing

It's a grace note. Try pressing ctrl + G in the simple entry tool.

Bubbles7689:
Oh. Thats a way simpler name than wikipedia said XD But apparently you cant do grace notes on notepad

Shadoninja:
I could be wrong, I usually am, but aren't appoggiaturas and grace notes slightly different things?

Bubbles7689:
All I know is that theres these little small notes, which according to wikipedia are appoggiaturas, and then theres a litle small note with a diagnol line through it thats called a acciaccatura. I think grace notes are the category that appoggiaturas and acciaccaturas are in.

Hmmm... could I copy and paste one from another finale file? Does anyone know off the top of their heads a song with a grace note in it?
