Piano view

Click Piano in the bottom bar, beside Analysis. It opens a full workspace with a horizontal keyboard and falling notes. Click Piano again to return to the arrangement. MIDI Keyboard remains the separate playable keyboard opened from the header.

Start playback to watch notes approach the keys. Track colors identify each part. The keyboard highlights arriving notes. Muted notes do not appear. Labels fit inside note blocks; very short or narrow blocks omit the label instead of overflowing it.

Click the three-line Piano settings button at the upper right. The overlay starts closed and sits above the view. Click outside it, press Escape, or click the button again to close it. On smaller windows the settings scroll while the keyboard stays in view.

Drag Time Scale, Note Width or Transpose up or down to change it. Click the value to type an exact number, then press Return. Values stay inside their supported ranges. The visual settings are stored with the project; save after arranging the view.

Check that the project has a MIDI track with notes near the playhead, and that its checkbox is enabled in Piano settings. An audio waveform does not become MIDI notes in this view.

Faint vertical lines separate pitch lanes aligned with the keyboard; octave boundaries are stronger. Horizontal lines show musical beats, with stronger lines labeled Bar 1, Bar 2 and so on. A label such as 2.3 means bar 2, beat 3. These lines follow time-signature changes. At a wider Time Scale, the display reduces the number of lines and labels to avoid crowding. Guides adapt to the theme and do not change playback or quantize notes.

Piano settings also offers Harmony guide (this computer) and Aim. The guide suggests possible next chords and notes from what you played. It starts off and does not play or hold notes. Aim steers the suggestions toward a feeling. This preference stays on the computer rather than in the project; the display settings above remain project settings.
