Entering notes with the mouse

When entering notes with the mouse and clicking too high above the staff, the note appears as belonging to the staff above.

The distance between the staves is crucial. The visible distance is invisibly divided into an area above the current staff and an area below the upper staff. When you select view | colour information, ([F11]) you can see these areas represented by a gray bar in the left margin. You can set these distances in the Template System. Leger lines will also indicate the mouse cursor's position relative to which staff.
