Ratio Tuplets within Tuplets - How?
Hello MuseScore!
I've recently been attempting to re-transcribe the works of Karlheinz Stockhausen in Musescore, just to see if it's possible. I'm only 3 notes into Klavierstuck I, and I've run into something strange. I know it's possible to create tuplets within tuplets, as long as they're represented with integers- but I'm struggling to input ratio tuplets within ratio tuplets. How would I?
Thanks in advance for any help you can give!

The problem is that the 7:5 tuplet does not have a note/rest value which can represent the entire length of the septuplet. The "solution" shown below is ridiculously complicated and the layout is fragile, but I show it because nobody has offered any other method.

Always up for a challenge. Here is my solution

This should play back as written.
A few additional notes:
This trick of making a fake measure with the duration of the tuplet works for all cases as the tuplet can be formed from a whole measure rest which can be of any duration.
[Edit: The invisible tempo didn't show up in the screen capture. It should be eighth = 176 i.e. 80.x 11/5 ).

After the odd tuplet had been created on that split off measure, you should be able to join measures again
