Fermatas

The fermata, or hold ( or ), is an Articulation. For complete instructions on creating, positioning, and moving articulations, see Articulations. If you’ve loaded an Articulation library into your file (or started your document with the Setup Wizard, a template, or new default document), you won’t have to create the symbol anew.

To move or delete a fermata

  1. Click the Articulation  image\Articulation_Tool.gif Tool.
  2. Drag the handle to move the fermata. Select it and press the arrow keys to “nudge” it for fine positioning; select it and press DELETE to remove it.
