When a note value is selected, clicking on “3:2” automatically activates the fitting triplet values. But it does so only, when clicked with the mouse. Is there a way to activate it via a keyboard shortcut?
The preconfigured keyboard shortcut “Ö” (German keyboard) opens the dialog, but that is exactly what I would like to skip. And I cannot find any other keyboard shortcut that would address that very button.
Entering ö 3 enter seems fast enough, doesn’t it?
I prefer a one-click solution here too as I use 3:2 tuplets way more often than other tuplets. I always input with a MIDI keyboard and numpad, so I added the following to my user keycommands file:
This way I have numpad 1 set to start triplet input with one click. (I have numpad 2 set to end tuplet input as well.)
I did suggest that there be a key command to trigger the tuplet ‘button’ with whatever option it currently has.
I’ve actually swapped the “Shift+Y” command for the “;”… that’s how often I need to choose the ratio.
Thank you, @klafkid , for your fast response! I didn’t know about that (even though I now remember to have seen it in a Dorico tutorial video somewhere). It is useable, but not so much, when entering with keyboard.
I will go with your suggestion, @FredGUnn ! Thank you for providing it!
Cool forum! So many quick answer and thought exchanges!
yes, it also seems peculiar to me that with D4 we have a button for 3:2 now, but cannot assign a key command to it.
Stream Deck with a programmed 3:2 triplet toggle on and off has been particularly useful for me.
