MS4 Alfa - Font and size of the repetition number of the measure
In MS4 I cannot change the font and size of the repetition number of the measure; how can I do?
Thanks to those who will give me an answer.
Eee attachment.

Same for multimeasure rests, and those also in MuseScore 3, 2 and 1.
Reason being: here the musical font is used, same glyphs as for time signatures.
At least that's what I think it is.

First of all thanks for the immediate reply.
The character of the number of the multi-measure rest is correct but cannot and must not be the same as the number of repeated measures. See Attachment

I see, so they apparently use different glyphs.

Hmm, they certainly do look the same when I try:

Those are right! It is the number of the repeated measures count that is not correct.

Still the same, even in your schreenshot:
![Allegato_3.png]( "Allegato_3.png")
![Allegato_0.png]( "Allegato_0.png")
![Allegato_1.png]( "Allegato_1.png")
Same as in your first one:

Which of them? The beige one?
As said: MuseScore uses the time sig glyphs for these numbers, those have a fixed size and stem from the Musical (Text) font, same as for multimeasure rests.
So not a bug, but by design, as far as I can tell
In reply to Which of them? by Jojo-Schmitz
Ok, let's hope they correct.
Thanks, very kind as always.

The beige (Dorico)
I don't personally recommend using the time signature / multimeasure rest font for those numbers, since that makes them too easily mistaken for multimeasure rests. I recommend using a smaller less conspicuous font, like the default in MuseScore. But if you do wish to create this look, simply add those symbols from the Symbols or Special Characters palettes.
EDIT: oh wait, I see - those numbers are added using that font by default if you use the new MU4 option to automatically number. I agree, not a good design decision. I recommend reporting this on GitHub so the developers can see it. Meanwhile, the solution is to not use that option and continue to add the numbers manually as in previous versions.

Thanks for the reply.
I would like to have the report on GitHub done by you because I don't know the English language and I'm afraid of not writing correctly. For this I thank you very much.
Good music.

Upon looking at more published music and the examples in Behind Bars, I think probably the sensible thing it to keep that same font (it's definitely commonly used) by default but in a smaller size. And then in future versions hopefully add style settings to control this further.
