Abbreviated Triplets?

[jscrawford]

Hello. Is it possible to add abbreviated triplets in dorico as in the following screenshot? I know one option will be adding them as text over each note then adjusting the positioning, but I was hoping there might be a more simple way!

I remember a thread in the last year or two about this. Let me see if I can search for it… (@John_Ruggero, weren’t you in on one I’m thinking of?)

Here’s one thread.

Tuplet Abbreviation?

Yes, it is possible in Dorico. Enter the 6-tuplet and 12-tuplet as 16th-note tuplets (6:4 and 12:8 respectively). Select the first note of the 6-tuplet which you want to abbreviate and change it to a dotted quarter note. Then add the 2-stroke tremolo marking. Similarly for the 12-tuplet - select the first note and change it to a dotted half note, then add the 2-stroke tremolo. You will possibly need to flip the tuplet numbers using F, and also hide tuplet brackets using the Properties pane…

Slurred tuplet brackets

Hello ! I’m brand new to Dorico (ver. 5), having moved from Finale. When working with tuplets, is there an option in Dorico 5 that allows tuplet brackets to be slurred, instead of square ? I had this option in Finale (worked with Finale for almost 30 years).

(I got the best search results searching for triplet slur, @jscrawford.)
