types of time signatures

• Apr 14, 2025 - 22:29

Hi.
In the 'Create Time Signature' dialogue, I recommend that the slash in Text, between the two fields of numerator and denominator, should be removed, and therefore the two fields should be one instead. I’m requesting this since the slash separating the two fields only makes it harder to create alternating and interchangeable time signatures. I also believe that adding the time signatures in each measure can be long work. And so can this be reasonably asked for? If so, I hope it will further enhance users' music scenes.

You definitely need at least two fields: one for the top and another for the bottom. If you want to have two separate "fractions" (as it were), then you need two fields for each. Additive time signatures work fine with what's built in. For example,

Yes I did mean alternating and interchangeable time signatures. I have found different separator styles in the master palette (like plus signs, equal signs, and parentheses) under ‘Time signatures’. But how do I use the separator styles in alternating/interchangeable signatures?

And what about inputting more than two separate fractions? Can you please show me how to do that?
