Multi measure rests vertical positioning

2013-01-14 Thread Werner
Hallo, I often used just r1 instead of R1 in 4/4 and 2/2 time. Now I thought, it would be good, to use the horizontally centered full-measure rests. BUT: I write two voices in one staff. For a while the lower voice plays quite high, the higher voice rests for some measures. The r1-rests are

Shorthand notation for multi-measure rests in music with frequent meter changes ?

I can't answer your question, but I have two responses to the dilemma. First, R2. is more compact than R1*3/4, and R1*2 is better than R1*8/4. Same with R4*5 vs R1*5/4. Also, if you happen to use Vim -- I keep all my time signatures in a separate file from the notes. It's then simple to map
