   Switch between kinds of settings. Opening the dialog from the menu always starts on this tab.

2. 2Autosave Interval

   How often, in seconds, unsaved changes are backed up. It starts at 30 seconds. Autosave is a feature of the paid version; the free version doesn’t make backups. See Saving and autosave.

3. 3Push Overflow to Next Bar

   When a longer note value makes a bar overflow, moves the notes that no longer fit into the next bar, tied across the barline. Bars are added at the end of the song as needed. It’s on at first. See Matching bar length.

4. 4Fill Short Bars With Rests

   When deleting beats or shortening a note value leaves a bar short, adds rests at its end. It’s off at first, and while it’s off, short bars are flagged by the meter in the edit palette and a mark on the score. See Matching bar length.
