Occasionally I'll have a need to do some basic editing in QuickScribe using the mouse to move a note up or down in pitch. But as often as not, and as careful as I can be in moving the mouse pointer absolutely vertically, the note wants to move left or right instead. Anyone else experience this? I wish I could select a note and simply move the arrow keys up or down like in Sibelius. Is there a way to make this procedure easier and more reliable?

Try holding down SHIFT before you click on the note and continue hold it while you drag the note. That will constrain your movement to either vertical or horizontal. As long as you generally move in a vertical direction, it will then prevent the note from slipping to the side.

This also works in the MIDI graphic editor as well.
