Is it possible to place a fermata onto different rhythmical positions, like in the following example? The fermata in this case is just a description of the last note - not meant to be prolonged…
How can I place the fermatas onto the different beats?
Easiest way is to drag them in Engrave mode. Remember to Propagate…
oh, such an easy workaround, thank you Dan 
I use a fermata in a general playing technique, so that I do not have to care about propagating or moving stuff. It stays where I put it.
Marc, thank you for this suggestion.
I will be updating my playing techniques 
Hi Marc,
How can I add a fermata as a playing technique? Thanks!
