Dal Segno to Fermata.....how?
Hi.
I entered the score to transpose it, but how can I make this? (see attached picture)
I tried to enter the text and then pull a fermata to that place, but the text is always moved away then.
Any idea?
Cheers
Thorsten

Hello! This is the first time I have seen a fermata used as a jump sign, and that uncommon usage is probably why Musescore Studio does not allow it.
Regards,

You could maybe bodge it by making an image of the Fermata (either with your operating systems screenshot function, or with Musescore 3’s built in camera) and adding it to the text, all within a text frame. To get correct playback you’ll also need to use the standard methods, but you can then make them invisible.

Hi Brer.
Thanks for your suggestion. Will give it a try.
But for now I exported the score to a PDF and added the fermata there. Since I don't want to play it in Musescore and just need the print oder the PDF on my tablet, this is OK for me.

Hi Magnus.
Thanks for your reply.
This is not so uncommon in german music pieces, esp. in Volksmusik I've seen that a few times.
But you might be right, in other regions of the world this is rather not used in this way.

You're welcome, Thorsten. Have you seen this fermata usage in a classical piece?
Use the fermata from the special characters table (Shift+F2 > Musical symbols > Holds and pauses)

Hi Jojo.
Thanks a lot....I wasn't aware there is such a feature.
Unfortunateley when I enter a fermata this way it is way too small and when I change the font size only for the fermata the whole text is shifted around.
But good to know about Shift+F12 :-)

Make the Fermata Subscript (and then even larger)

A fermata on a bar line was often used in late 19th early 20th Century music as an alternative to a Fine sign. I have most often seen it used to indicate the end of a section in a waltz.
