Overstrike mode is the default edit mode for MusiCAD. This in contrast to the - still available - insert mode in prior versions.

Overstrike mode is selected when the insert-mode button overstrike_mode.jpg is not down.

 

Note-deletions will result in a rest of the same duration. A 1/4 note will overstrike 4 consecutive 1/16 notes etc.

 

On overwrite MusiCAD will take into account durations and position within a bar.
