• Set the string spacing and font size to match the stave settings in the score.
• Select a font face and select the voice to be made bold.
• Select a range of measures, or use without selection to apply to all, then press Apply.
• If the results need adjusting then press Undo and adjust the settings.
The offset fields can be used to nudge the bold text left, right, up and down and should be set before pressing Apply.
To remove bold tab from a score use the Remove button.
Note that this works by removing bold, numeric staff texts from the entire score.
If you need to protect bold, numeric texts from removal then add a single space at the start and end.
