Metric Modulation Shout-out
I was just getting ready to post a query asking how to create* a Metric Modulation, or Tempo Equation--you know, those markings by which Uncle Elliott tells you that a quintuplet crotchet will henceforth equal a triplet quaver--when I came across Metrico, a handy-dandy little--what's the technical term? add-on? widget?--which nestles in your computer's font folder, and has a learning curve of about ten seconds.

*engraving, I mean; anyone with a pocket calculator can figure out how to make MuseScore realize it in play-back. But it's become common enough notation, I'm surprised I had to go outside of MuseScore to find a solution.
(Now anyone who does a search on here for "Metric Modulation" or "Tempo Equation" will find this post.)
Thank you, Florian

MuseScore has them too, unsurprisingly in the tempo palette

Yes, but unless I'm missing something, just simple one-to-one equations: minim=crotchet, crotchet=dotted crotchet. No tuplets, and no arrows.

You can add more yourself
