Description
Describe the issue
The current wording of the options "Staff/System text properties" in the context menus for Staff/System text is ambiguous. It looks as if the option is about "text properties" whereas in reality it is about playback properties (swing and capo settings).
Suggestion: Consider changing the wording of "Staff text properties" and "System text properties" to "Text playback properties" (or similar).
