In Notion the computer mouse plays a major part in selecting a staff, notes and most score staff objects.
There isn't any other way to focus the cursor to objects in different systems without clicking into the field you wish to edit, add or delete items from.
It is what it is and
since excepting the methods and ways to work with Notion I haven't felt limited or frustrated. I just get the job done. I then enjoy what I've accomplished as do other people that see my work in action.
Yes, it could be changed to allow for different workflow methods; yet, it's simplicity of use with the computer mouse isn't all bad.
With the mouse you can *quickly move to different parts of the screen. *Make selections with a marque box selection. *Drag notes up and down a staff. *Align objects by click and drag mouse movements etc, etc. etc.
It is what it is and it works fairly smooth. You must take the time needed to learn the power user methods. Reading the manual, learning all of the computer keyboard short-cuts with mouse interaction make for very fast manipulation adding, deleting, editing and playing music performances ( *live play-along or listening).
Combining all the possibilities Notion can achieve and! incorporating other software synchronized with Notion via "Rewire" you have
lots! and lots! of 21st century innovation for creative ideas.
It is what it is and it works. Good! IMO.
