General rules for mouse actions:
The bottom area of most editors shows the velocity (volume) values of the notes displayed above. Use the mouse to change a sinlge velocity value, or simply drag the mouse in that area to obtain a crescendo or decrescendo.
For developers: All editors are based on an abstract editor class (PrPartEditor), which makes it easy to implement new Editors of any kind.
