Object
An object is anything on the edit-bar that has a distinct position of its own. Ornaments and the like are directly connected to a note and have no distinct position of their own.
To alter the position of an object use the buttons or more convenient <alt> <alt> <alt> <alt> while the cursor is pointing at the text to move the text-object in any direction.
An object may be moved to the left and right (and exchange neighboring position) using , or <ctrl-alt> and <ctrl-alt>.
Objects that have a parameter (like text-size) can be altered (resized) using , or <ctrl +> or <ctrl ->.
Use the context menu of an object for more information depending on the objects properties.
