Triplet beam linking
Is there some setting somewhere to stop the auto-beam linking of triplets? V2.0.2 automatically puts a single beam between sets of 16th note triplets and currently I'm manually having to put a "beam start" at the beginning of each triplet to unlink them.

If you are talking about a case like this:
That looks correct / standard to me. Do you have some special reason to want something different here, or are you talking about something else?
If this is what you are talking about, you can use the Time Signature Properties to tell MuseScore to beam thirty-seconds in groups of four (half beats) only rather than the default which has the sub-beam separating two groups of four. This will also affect sixteenth triplets in the same way. But it is not the normal standard practice for either thirty-seconds or sixteenth triplets.

Yes, this is what I'm referring to and the reason that I want them separated is because that's the way they appear as they were originally published. Maybe that's old fashioned and the sub-beaming is the more modern method but I want my transcription to look like the original. Thanks for pointing me to the Time Signature Properties for a workaround.

Understood. BTW, using Time SIgnature Properties is not really a "workaround". This is exactly the sort of thing this dialog is intended for: providing overrides to the defaults for special case situations like this. But do note it's per-staff, also per time signature change. So if you are working on a larger score with multiple instruments and time signature changes, you should probably create a custom version fo the time signature and add it to your palette and use that *instead* of the standard 4/4 (or whatever).

Finally figured out that your "create a custom version of the standard 4/4" meant to just add another 4/4 time signature without the sub-links for the 32nd notes at the bottom. Duh! Using this secondary, "custom" 4/4 signature seems to work for the entire score. Thank you.
