Thanks, Anthony. This was very clear, helpful, and concise!

[ChristopherFryman]

This new series of videos is great.  Thank you.

[EricGoetzMusic]

I missed how you added the horizontal lines above the title and below the composer.

[frankgratkowski]

I'm missing to add i.e. percussion layout (which instruments were) and fingering charts for extended techniques. There for pitches have to be included to the instructions.

Hey, is there a way to copy the title page if I need it for more than one layout?

[unclepatrick]

What I need to do is create a title page and have it applied to all the parts. I'm not finding an option that will allow me to do this. Any suggestions?

Hello. Today I bought Dorico Elements, but I don't see all those options in the tab called "Engrave". Are those options only available in Dorico Pro?
Thank you.

What's the names of the fonts used for the title and the Dorico Edition at the bottom?

[digitig]

How did you get the horizontal rules, above and below Dorico Edition, etc?

[MikaelRatilainen]

How can i get visible that pages sidebar on the left. Mine doesnt have it 😄

What about the page overrides which are forbidden?
I have tried to create a page templet for text page with a text frame built in intending to add text later but I can't do that
as the text frame I have created doesn't appear besides the frame creation page...
I have tried to put in text in the template itself but it wont be showing in write mode...
To eventually add a text in the preface page I had to re create a text frame but again I am getting a page override mark red...
So there is no need to create a template page because it is not functional for whatever reason...
thanking in advanced for an answer.

What's the total number of points a page has on each side? I'm trying to figure out what the exact middle is, but I'm not sure how to do it... Also, is there a way to create lines, other than with the border of a text frame? I'd like to create a coloured line, for instance, but can't seem to find a way to do it. Thanks!

In Engrave Mode I'm unable to see (locate) the Frames button on the upper left so I can add text frames. Mine reads: "Format Music Frames." What might I be doing wrong or not seeing? Any suggestions?

[hrh]

1) I don't have the frame button in my engrave sect. in Dorico 4 .
2). I can't add any content to my text frame.
3). This doesn't work as decrived here, u.i. is different.
