How can I access more properties for an item?

There is more that can be done to a note or group of notes than just assigning a duration, an accidental, a slur or the like. When you select a note (or group of notes) and press Alt+Enter, a dialog box appears to give you more control over the note. The Notation Properties dialog box allows you to change the spacing, mute the note(s), turn off ledger lines, change tie and slur direction, change the color, mark it to never be printed and more. For most any item entered (rests, bar lines, tempo variance, etc), you can select it and use Alt+Enter to access the properties dialog box for that item to have more control.
