Dorico 6 "Metronome Music Text Font" gone from Font Styles?

Hello everyone,

This is funny because I made a post about this yesterday when I was working in Dorico 5:

Adjusting Music symbols in a Metronome Mark

Hello everyone, Has anyone had a go at adjusting the music symbols in a Metronome marking? I have been fine tuning my library and balancing the Metronome music text font and the metronome Text font. I want to replicate the look of my old metronome marks in Sibelius, with a longer stem. see screenshot below (on the right) Is this possible to do If I import custom symbols? Would I be able to adjust the symbol for a metronome mark without altering the main music text font? Any advice would b…

I have now updated to Dorico 6 and the metronome mark crotchet symbol appears too small.

Not normally an issue, I adjust the size of “Metronome Music Text Font” in Font Styles, except this is now gone along with “Metronome Text Font”. Is there now a new way of handling this?
Just FYI I am using “Bravura Text” for the metronome symbols for the longer stem.

I have restarted my computer since installing as a previous forum post suggested

Thanks for your help!
Josh

Indeed, it has changed and has its own setting. Look up for Metronome Mark Music Text Character style.

I looked in Paragraph styles before making my post. I only found the options to change the number: Tempo (metronome mark) and the expressive mark: Tempo (immediate). Is there somewhere to adjust the size of the symbol in relation to the number?

Sorry I edited my answer
I mean, I just looked for Metronome in the Version History, no wizardry!
