Diferent fonts for Immediate tempo changes

Good evening, how can I have a different source for two Immediate tempo change? For example, I’d like tempo indications like “Adagio” to be in one font and the indication “a tempo” to be in the same font as Gradual tempo change. Thank you

You can enter a gradual tempo indication and then change its properties. Here’s an example of entering ‘rit’ and then changing it to read ‘a tempo’ (and also changing the final tempo property so that playback doesn’t actually slow down.

You could also create a paragraph style that has the same properties as the Gradual Tempo Text font style, and then add your expression as system text (Shift+Alt/Opt + X) with that paragraph style.

Ultimately I think we need to add an engraving option to allow relative tempos like a tempo to be drawn using the gradual tempo style, rather than the immediate tempo style. No such option exists at present, however.
