Greetings -
I’m engraving Ravel’s string quartet. The 4th movement is in 5/8 and there are some instances of 1/4-note duplet measures. I can fake it by using an 8th-note as the base value and make a quadruplet with a 4:5 ratio. That results in two 1/4 note values for the 5/8 measure. So far, so good, but I need it to appear as a 1/4-note duplet rather than an 1/8th-note quadruplet. One solution is to create a text 2 and place it above the bracket but I’d rather have the number centered in the bracket line. My solution is to hide the tuplet marks and create a custom line. That’s fine but it would be much less fiddly to be able to just change the tuplet number - assuming the number change could be read by Dorico as no actual change in the tuplet math.
Just tossing that out for consideration.
Cheers!
