I have my chords set, now I want to write the soloist part for a sax player. I want to write the notes ♪♫♪♫ for him to play, but not sure how to do that. Trying in Notation Edit mode, but having no luck avoiding/modifying the automatic entries BIAB scores for me.
Is it possible to just write out a solo part with notes and rests? If so, how?
Thanks Mister D

By default, the soloist track is a MIDI track, so you should be able to enter whatever notes you want on the soloist track (make sure that's the track you select). You can do this in either the editable notation editor or the piano roll editor. In the notation editor, you have to click on the little grid on the top left of the window to put it into edit mode (you can see this in the user manual).
In the editable notation window, make sure you click the radio button next to the Soloist track. You will also see three buttons immediately to the right of the "Print" button. The first button (two horizontal lines) is for display only. The second button (looks like a tick-tac-toe grid) is for basic note editing. The third button lets you manually set the length of notes and the velocity of notes.
BIAB does note entry different from every other notation editor. I think Matt Finley has documented how this works in a previous post and might be able to point you to that.
Some RealStyles, however, use an instrument on the soloist track, which would make it basically unavailable to you unless you removed that RealTrack and turn the track back to MIDI.

Thanks Mister D Short question for Mister D: How did you enter ♪♫♪♫ in your post? I copied and pasted your entry to duplicate it.
