Overview

The Tracks Selection Toolbar allows you to display multiple score parts simultaneously.

Tip

In this context, “track” and “score part” are used interchangeably, as score parts are associated with synthesizer tracks for playback functionality.

Track Selection Process

To include or exclude tracks in the sheet music or guitar tablature view:

1. Tap the icon of a track item block
2. When included:
   • The track item’s background color brightens slightly
   • The part/track visibility indicator (treble clef icon) becomes fully opaque

In the example above, Guitar 1, Keyboard, and Strings tracks have been included.

Important Considerations

• Excluding all tracks will automatically include the first track (Guitar 1 in this example). The sheet music view cannot display an empty set of parts due to the underlying open-source rendering engine used by VirtualScore.
• Track item background colors are derived from the source file, typically found in GP file formats. If this information is absent, VirtualScore uses a default background color.

Key Features

1. Multi-track display: View multiple score parts simultaneously
2. Visual feedback: Clear indication of included/excluded tracks
3. Automatic fallback: Ensures at least one track is always visible
4. Color-coding: Helps distinguish between different tracks (when available in the source file)
