This is a more specific working example, taken from my music sheet. As you can
see, the trios are needed to sync on the other voices.
if using:
f4x3n r r : The first note is a quarter instead of an eight (cannot ask for
beams, i guess this is normal )
f4ax3n r r : all is ok
f4ax3 r r : error dimension is to large
f82a r : i replaced the trio with 2 eights (temporary solution)
Until now, all my test are ok if forcing a not beamed tuplet

I’ve whiled a few hours but have more to go. Andre’s problem is a special case
of a more general one that occurs when an xtuplet has only one note that is not
a rest. I do have an idea about an approach to fixing it. But I also wonder
whether there has ever been any other example in all of Western music, besides
Andre’s, of an xtuplet with just one note and all the other members rests.
The deeper I dig into my ancient coding the more complicated it gets. When
constructing xtuplets and positioning the number, there is a huge number of
features that must be accounted for. Because of that, I’m nervous about the
possibility of breaking something that already works. As a test, I’ve checked
many (all?) possible 4-tuplets with two rests. With my working version of the
code my test file runs fine and positions the number acceptably in all cases. I
must have already fixed something, because the 4-tuplet test file did not run
with the most recent version pmx282.
For triplets with two rests, stay tuned.

Thanks Andre for the bug report. Since I can’t play ping pong over the weekend
due to a strained muscle, this will give me something to while away the hours J.

Thanks Don, i am very happy with this feature
Here i have an example that sometimes fails to run, ie when removing the ‘nf’

There’s a new beta distribution of PMX version 2.82 on WIMA, at
http://icking-music-archive.org/software/pmx/pmx282PRE.zip
The only new feature here is allowing xtuplets to end with a rest. It had been
sitting around waiting for an excuse to go public, and that excuse came out of
the blue when Christian specifically asked about that very feature.
