I think the expectation is that most composers most of the time do not want notes split up automatically as it probably means a mistake was made when entering the notes. Basically they'll split when they want to. It's just you and I working with generated scores where this other behavior is preferred. >I am also using a compound metre. Hopefully this will work with that. I have no idea about that! For me I'm just using the bar lines and automatic breaking more for aesthetic reasons or as a help to the performer to see where they are than I am for any musical reasons. So for me 4/4 is all I'm using. Naively I would assume that it should work for more complex time signatures. >In one case I have repeating measures of 5/4 + 3/4 + 2/4. I have succeeded in getting the bar lines printed after 5th and 8th quarter notes in a 10/4 time scale by adding a voice with bar lines at those places. May be there is a different method of achieving this effect. I'm not quite getting what you're trying to do, do have a picture or some code?
