How to do a Rhythmic Table like this in Dorico

Hi altogether

What is the best way to do something like this in Dorico?
Shall I do it with 72 Frames placed on one Page, or shall I do it with cutaways or shall I do it with coda hiding the coda sign, what would be the best way ?
Thank you for Help !
Best

I’d stick with the coda trick… so easy. But I wonder whether cut-away could do even better (keeping those bar numbers would be quite practical!)

The cut-away version looks pretty good.

To hide the barlines use a default dashed barline and set the dash length in Engraving Options to zero.
The “bar numbers” are rehearsal marks as the cut bars count

If you do it in 3/4, then cutaway the last 1/4 of every bar, you can use bar numbers.

What a great Forum I have to say, always helpful.

I never did anything with cutaways , it just looked promising to me, so it looks it could be the best option, I just want to make a lot more of this kind (quintuplets,sextuplets…..)

I don’t know if in 3/4 there are new combinations , but what I have to do is incorporate more rests into the Patterns

I didn’t mean new combinations but using hidden 3/4 or 4/4 and cutaway the last part to get the space in between.

Like this, but with the 4/4 hidden

That way you can use bar numbers every bar

Ahh now I got it, what a great Idea thank you very much, so I start to learn everything about cutaways, so I can make this Document .

Note that you can copy/paste the cutaway signposts or make a shortcut for the create manual cutaway. I just selected the half note rest at the end of every bar, right-clicked, and staff→Create manual cutaway.

I adopted your workflow, it’s very nice and efficient. You’ll find it in my template for music exams I shared earlier today (exercise 8)

Great ! Thank you all

I was wondering… do you really need the 5-line staff. If you use a percussion line with an invisible clef, it can be easier on the eyes, fit more per page and you can use hidden codas (a bit easier maybe?).

Marvelous exercises, by the way, congratulations!
