Obviously there’s a lot to digest in Dorico 6 but unless I’m mistaken, two of the basics haven’t been dealt with: Ties etc. into second-time bars etc. The distance between arpeggio signs and accidentals ‘perfect scores, faster…’ In a recent thread, the former seemed to be requested perhaps more …

[image] sjanssens: You’re making some sizable assumptions assuming that the improvements would have been present had it not been for the Cubase work What makes you think there wouldn’t have been much more work done if twice as many man hours had been spent on Dorico? [image] sjanssens: W…
