How do I make this tuplet tempo notation in Dorico?

The usual suggestion is to download MusGlyphs and add this notation as system text.

q3= q

or 3q = q

I don’t think there’s a way to get two quarter rests under the tuplet bracket, but maybe someone else knows.

Hi @Ted_Trobaugh, another way is to create this in Dorico, using a 0-line instrument, then export a slice, and create a Playing technique as Glyph with this graphic:

The exported SVG:
tuplet-quarter.svg.zip (2.0 KB)

Usage example:

Cool! Thanks. It’s a great work-around, but IMHO Dorico should not require a work-around to achieve this, and similar, goals. Feature Request: A graphic-designer analogous to what Finale enabled you to do.

Thanks again.
