With the score viewer, you can look at the full score for a selection. You can bookmark pages in online scores for future use, and score views can be changed according to your preferences. You may want to use the score viewer in conjunction with the audio player to follow along. If the score you want to view is unavailable in Variations, it likely has not yet been digitized but is probably available for checkout.
- Use the Zoom options to change the appearance of the score. You may zoom in (+) to make the score bigger or zoom out (-) to make the score smaller. Try the various view sizes (%) and "fits" from the dropdown menu.
- Also, you can use the Compact View/Full View button to remove or add the left-hand panel of controls.
Opening the Annotation Tools
The annotation
tools may be activated in the score viewer. On the sidebar [left-hand side],
there is an annotation box with two toggle buttons, Hide/Show Tools and
Hide/Show Annotations. By clicking on the Show Tools button, the annotation
tools will appear surrounding the score. The button will change to Hide Tools,
and clicking it again will hide them. This is the same for the Show/Hide annotation
button. However, hiding the annotations will also hide the tools. Hiding the
annotations will not delete or clear them. More information on the annotation tools is on the
Annotation page
