marcello,
create a shape text expression as follows: a box with "no line" and "white fill", the lower number in *24* maestro [or the same size as the upper number], three short horizontal lines [with 1 space/24 EVPUs vertical distance between each, the same thickness as your staff lines] crossing through the number. apply as measure-attached expression. separate versions will have to be made for any staves with other than 5-lines. do not hide time signatures: if *your* time signature is in /3, finale's should be in /2 -- if /5 or /6, finale's should be in /4... etc. --, with the appropriate expression hiding/replacing the lower number. this way finale's spacing will still function in most cases, but small adjustments may be necessary with /12 or /10 time sigs [defined in finale as /8 time sigs]. don't forget to place the expression also at end of systems before changes into these so-called irrational time signatures, where the cautionary time sig appears. >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Mark D. Lew) >Also, I'm still not clear on how you mark a triplet as a triplet when only two of the >three notes are there. 1/2 = 1 half note, 1/3 = 1 half note triplet value [1/3 of a whole note], so a 2/3 time sig represents two *half note triplet* values. jef -- shirling & neueweise \................/ new music notation specialists mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] :.../ http://newmusicnotation.com ++ _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
