Can we set 3/2 as time signature
In the handbook it describes adding a custom time signature to the palette.
Is this the only mean to get 3/2 ?
I have an existing score in 3/4 and want to set to 3/2 but can't find a wayto do it by edit element or tim esignature properties.

Yes but this is just my question: is it possible to simply edit the properties of the time signature in the score to set 3/2 or do we really need to add a custom own element to the palette just to be able to make a score in 3/2 ?
(In the wizard to create a new score one doesn't need its own element; selecting 3/2 is easy)

No, edditing an eisting timesig in a score can only change ist appearance (like turning a 4/4 into a 2+2/4 or some such) but won't change the number of beats

As mentioned, you can't turn one time signature into another just by editing its properties.
However, you don't need to actually create a custom palette if you'd rather not. Simply press Shift+T to display the "Time Signatures" section of the master palette and create the time signature there. It will remain there for future use even without actually creating a custom palette and adding it there.

Thanks Marc, seems an easy way.
But ... I have a problem after adding the 3/2 by shift-T it doesn't appear in the palette.
Even after closing and restarting MuseScore (see print screen)
?

If you want it to appear in the palette, then you *do* need to go through the "custom palette" procedure (which only takes about 10 seconds). But you seemed to not want to got that route for whatever reason, so I was showing you another way that doesn't require it. You can just access the 3/2 directly from the master palette via Shift+T if you'd rather not create a custom palette.

Ah, ok now I get it, you can also drag and drop from the master palette to the score.
I did not understand what was the shift-T, I was thinking that I was just busy to edit the current palette.
Now that that I got it, it works perfectly, thanks.

Now that I have tasted it, I want more of course ;-)
So the question is: I don't find in the preferences the way to define a shortcut to make the fingering master palette appear, does it exist? Or do I need to introduce a feature request?
And, why in shortcuts definition shift-T is called "Show time signature palette" and not "Show time signature master palette"?

We are already working on ways of making all palettes keyboard accessible, no need to open another feature request.
As for the label on the command, I agree it could be clearer.
