How to keep the same tempo after time-signature change?
I'm new to Musescore and would like to know whether there is a function similar to the conventional tempo instruction 'crotchet = dotted crotchet' at a time-signature change.
I'm transcribing a guitar arrangement of Bach's 'Jesu, joy of man's desiring' in which the time signature switches between 9/8 and 3/4 but the three-beats-in-a-bar pulse remains constant. At the moment the playback is keeping the same duration for a quaver in both time signatures, so that the tempo increases whenever the music goes into 3/4 (because a quaver in compound time represents a smaller division of the beat). I don't want to write the whole thing in 3/4 with triplets or 9/8 with ties. I suppose I can figure out the relative bpm and enter tempo text at the appropriate places, but if there is a better way then I'd like to learn it. Thanks for any help.

I'm afraid "figure out the relative bpm and enter tempo text at the appropriate places" is the way to go

Indeed - and it always makes my brain hurt :(
Maybe a good feature request for after MuseScore 2 is released?
