[jmsl] MaxScore questions

[jmsl at music.columbia.edu]

I have some questions concerning Max Score

1. what do the numbers 0.5 and 0.8 in "addNote" after Dur and pitch mean?
example: "addNote 1 60. 0.5 0.8"

2. how is it possible to add notes to the 2nd or 3rd staff?

3. Is it possible to add chords as a list or do I have to to do it with
adding a note and then addInterval?

4. in Max 5 I can only see 5 staffs. If I have more they are not visible -
also no way to scroll.

Is there a document with all the possible messages ?

It would be great if you can help me.

best,

Frank
