Hi everyone,
I would like to create a 5/4 time signature that visually appears simply as 5/4, but with an internal dashed barline between beats 3 and 4 β essentially indicating a 3+2 grouping.
The key point is that I do not want the time signature to display as 3+2/4 or as an aggregate meter. I want it to look like a normal 5/4, just with a dashed subdivision inside the bar.
If I insert a regular dashed barline, Dorico treats it as a structural barline: it spans all staves and resets accidentals. Thatβs not the behavior Iβm looking for.
What I need is something that behaves like the dashed division in an aggregate meter (3+2), but while keeping the visible time signature as 5/4.
Is there a way to achieve this?
Thanks in advance!
