Detailed Description

Encapsulates a note entry from an owner class (for example FCNoteEntryCell, FCNoteEntryLayer) class.

This class requires PDK_FRAMEWORK_ENTRIES to be defined.

The class is also a collection of notes (of the FCNote class).

When a note entry that uses standard notation is loaded from Finale, the notes are sorted in pitch order from lowest to highest. For percussion and tabulature notation however, there is no relation between displayed position and order in the entry. It's safest to not assume that entries are sorted.

Member Function Documentation

int FCNoteEntry::AddArticulations	(	FCNoteEntry *	pSourceEntry,
		bool	bNoDuplicates = `true`
	)

Adds (appends to the existing ones) all articulations from another entry.

It's the caller's responsibility that the both source and destination entries are in the same document.

If the source entry has an articulation cache, that will be used as source. Otherwise, the articulations will load from the Finale database.

If articulations were added, the articulation flag is set for the entry. (The entry has to be saved separately through the TGF frame.)

Lua-supported.

Parameters

pSourceEntry	The entry to copy from.
bNoDuplicates	If true (default), articulations duplicates will not be copied.

Returns: Number of articulation added to the entry. If the note entry doesn't have an entry number to add the articulations to, 0 will be returned.

FCNote * FCNoteEntry::AddNewNote ( )

Adds a new note to the chord.

Lua-supported.

Returns: NULL if no note could be added. Otherwise, the note object that was added to the collection.

int FCNoteEntry::AddPitch ( FCNote * pNote )

This method will not do anything on rests.

March 10, 2013: Changed so the full entry is now automatically set to update the accidentals for the frame.

Lua-supported.

Parameters

pSourceEntry	The entry to copy from.
unique	If true, only add note pitches that don't exist.
