Allen, this needs to be made clear in the documentation. If you look
at the page on tempo marking, you'll see it still says:
Note that you can easily generate full-featured metronome marking
expressions with the Create Tempo Marking plug-in. See Create Tempo
Marking Plug-in.

So rather than modify the plugin to use the new expressions, it gets
deleted. So instead of a simple highlight the measure and go to the
plugin and type in some simple things, it is now buried in the
expression designer, a good 3+ clicks more than before?
The old philosophy of MakeMusic would
I would call it buried in the expression designer. Double-click in
the score to see the list of expressions. If the tempo marking you
want is already there, just use it. If it isn't already there, one
click takes you to the Expression Designer where you can create the
tempo marking.

Century, where he gives many lists of the strengths of different
orchestras. For example, in Munich in 1803, the Churbayerishe

One of the great improvements they made is that they got rid of it.
It is now an expression, and you have to create it in the expression
editor.
Fun huh?

Generally, when I do work, I don't have tempos already defined, and
when I have used the plugin before, it is creating a tempo for the
first time. So, the whole first part of your argument is nulled.

How? To be absolutely clear, I'm talking about the quarter note
symbol. I can only make the plug-in create circa [quarter note] =
100, not [quarter note] = circa 100

Easy, highlight the measure, go to the plugin, check Display Tempo
text, type in what you want, and uncheck Display Metronome Marking.

No, that doesn't make an expression with the symbol for the quarter
note in it, only normal text.

On Sun,
Ok, no, it doesn't. But then again, I've never noted any tempo marking
like that.
Regardless, I still think the Plugin should have been modified to work
with the new expressions rather than just axed. It is more steps to
create markings.

Of course. Otherwise everyone whose part is silent won't know that
there's a fermata, will barge right ahead, and will then write in the
fermata you left
