Editing SCORE (software) (section)

=== Editing music graphically/numerically ===

Once the music has been entered using the five-stage input process described above, the musical data is converted by SCORE into the following graphical items and stored as a series of numeric parameters:

Here then is the numerical representation of the BWV 847 fugue theme example.  Each line represents one graphical item as a CODE number (item type) and associated numeric parameters.  The second number is the staff on which the item belongs, and the third is the horizontal position of the item along the full width of the paper, with 0 representing the left margin, and 200 representing the right margin.  The fourth number often contains the vertical position on the staff - the bottom line of the staff is vertical position 3, the bottom space of the staff is 4, and so on.

Unlike most music typesetting editors, understanding and manipulation of these numerical parameters are expected of SCORE users.  To access the numeric parameters of items within SCORE, a user clicks on a graphical element, and a list of the parameters is displayed at the top of the editor - as shown in the first screenshot, where a slur is selected (notice the black vertical arrow above the staff at the beginning of the third bar).

SCORE was creative in packing as much information as possible into each numeric parameter.  For example, Parameter 5 of CODE 1 is described as 'stem direction/accidental' but uses each [[place value]] to encode a different piece of information.  Note that by SCORE default, only the top note of a chord has a stem, all the other notes are stemless. So a down-stemmed sharp would have a P5 of 22.  An up-stemmed flat with a left offset of 2.5 would be 11.25.  A stemless natural with a right offset of 3 would be 3.93, and if it were bracketed it would be 103.93.<ref name="SCORE3"/>
