In Staventabs Pro, you do not choose the symbol for a rest, instead you mark the position as containing a rest. The rest symbol is determined automatically according to the note value of its position, which can be changed in the Note values pane.

- Allocate a space for a rest by pressing the Right Arrow
key. - Click the Rest
button in the right sidebar to add a quarter rest. - To change the duration of the rest to half (1/2), click the Half
button in the Note values pane. - You can remove a rest from the staff by clicking the highlighted Rest
button. - To undo the last action and bring the rest symbol back, press Command‑Z
