ALT+A, for Annotations
T for Text Category or X for Text Assistant. Use Assistant whenever
possible if you are new to Lime and Lime Aloud.
Then choose the type of annotation you wish to enter into your score.
See information on Annotations in the Lime Aloud Guide:
Start
Programs
Lime
Lime Aloud Guide

Yes, but how do I get into templates? And how do I get into Annotation?
