Hi

I'm working on a choral arrangement and there are these huge blue triangles protruding from the right hand side of the screen. The notes come through the blue portion and I can select things (resulting in a blank white box), but that's it. I can't get them to go away.

Help anyone?

You call them "blue triangles"; I call them "blue triangles"; in fact, we ALL call them "blue triangles", apart, it seems, from MakeMusic! Check this out, at the link Zuill mentioned ...

"that causes blue polygonal shapes to be rendered onscreen"

There. Now you have it. This feature is called Blue Polygonal Shapes! lol

They're covering themselves in case the shape should change. All triangles are polygons, although not all polygons are triangles.

OMG - and I thought a "Polly Gone" was an extinct parrot! Probably pining for the fjords!! :-)

Come to think of it, appropriately enough, that was a Norwegian BLUE!!! lol

The plumage doesn't enter into it. The polygons are stone dead!
