one on the left). Make sure the symbol object is selected in the object
palette. Select a crescendo by double-clicking on the start of the crescendo.

points to shape and move the crescendo. Click on a control point to select
it and drag it around to shape or move the crescendo. Alternatively you
can move a control point around using the arrow keys. You can move between
control points by using the TAB and the SHIFT+TAB keys as well as by clicking
on them with the mouse. The middle control point is used for move the
crescendo and the outer control points for setting the start and end points
of the crescendo. When you are finished shaping and positioning your crescendo,
click the right mouse button or press the ENTER key to enter it into the

tools in the toolbar. Make sure the symbol object is selected in the object
palette. Select the tool you want and apply the edit by clicking on the
beginning of the crescendo (to erase using the eraser tool) or by dragging
the crescendo up, down, left or right.
