Hi Giovanni, Is that you wanted to? (see appended image n° 1). I'm sorry, I really misunderstood the question; maybe I was misled by your nod to a 'tuplet' (that really it is, however, although it has no function). It is the only 'healthy' way of writing what you requested. There are far le

Hi, I'm sorry if I gave impression to criticize this or that 'current' of contemporary music; that's the problem maybe, it was a 'current' (quite old just now, b.t.w.). I agree that Giovanni has to deal with the needs of his client. all best, Paolo Il 3

Hi, we are dealing with arithmetic, not even with mathematics; 3+3=6, no matter what you can 'feel'. The musical expression comes through the notation, but it is not the notation. Cheers, Paolo Il 30/05/2019 10:31, SN jef chippewa ha scritto: criticizing a particular notation without know

Hi Giovanni, I can't figure that rhythm; how on earth you can write it? two dotted halves makes six quarter, not five. You can find such rhythms in contemporary ('new complexity') composers, but they are wrong (and silly). all best, Paolo Il 28/05/2019 19:52, Giovanni Andreani ha scritto:

Hi, A 'political' (maybe) consideration about music softwares other than /Finale /- that allow me not to mention them explicitly. I see that many people (and increasingly so) likes to allow software (or maybe, other people) to do things ready for them. That's an interesting phenomenon, not a

Hi, Here is, i.m.h.o, the best way to handle 'mid measure' clefs: 1) Create the clef: ctrl-double click on the measure, get 'Change Clef' window, and choice 'Create a movable mid-measure clef'; 2) Modify it: ctrl-click the handle of the clef you have just created, and get 'Mid Measure Clef'
