To copy chords from one region to another

In this discussion, the source region is the music that currently contain the chords, and the target region is the music to which you want to copy them.

  1. Click the Selection Tool  image\Selection_Tool.gif. Choose Edit Filter from the Edit menu. The Edit Filter dialog box appears.
  2. Select Chords (only). Click OK.
  3. Select the source region. See Selecting music for some region-selecting shortcuts.
  4. Drag the highlighted region so that it’s superimposed on the beginning of the target region. If the target passage is offscreen, scroll to it; then, while pressing option and shift simultaneously, click it.

The chords will automatically transpose if the source and target passages are in different keys.
