Tablature Mode

The TabMode is working in Real Time now. There is no changing of MIDI 
notes any longer. You can activate TabMode in the "Staff Options"-  or 
in the "Tablature..." Dialog; the last dialog allows you to "tune" the 
strings. These tuning is part of a track, this means, you can have 
different tunings for each track. There is also a setting to force 
displaying only note heads without rhythm and rests: "No Stems/ Rests". 
With the "Channel 1 - 6" checkbox you can force all notes on MIDI channel 1 
to be displayed on string 1, all notes on MIDI channel 2 on string 2 and 
so on (only if possible; e.g. a e3 cannot be displayed on a string tuned on 
e4). This feature is made for MIDI guitar players: switch on MONO MODE on 
your guitar synth, set the out channel for the strings from channel 1 - 6, 
and all notes are displayed exactly on the string where you play them. 

With activated TabMode the pitches of notes are editable in the main score 
window like in other modes; however, the range of displayable note pitches 
is limited from "lowest string" to "highest string, fret 27". Pitches 
outside this limit are displayed as regular notes.

Normally all notes are displayed on the highest possible string. The menu 
command "Move To String" (in "Staff" menu) lets you move notes to other 
strings than the default.

There is a shortcut for switching between tablature mode and regular 
notation: choose the "Tablature..." menu while pressing <CONTROL>.
