If the font is too large, block-select the bend notes, and in the PropertyManager, under Text Format, clear Use document font, click Font, and resize.
Select bend notes individually to:
- Drag into a legible position
- Rotate the note
- Add leaders
You cannot individually delete bend notes, but you can right-click the bend note, and select Hide.
