I also have problems when inputting baroque rhythms, which are often notated differently than Dorico wants them to be, though perfectly clearly understood by the sightreader. Consequently, I spend a lot of time forcing them back to what the composer used and what I want. Admitedly, i can copy the first example when it repeats; but it would be nice to have a switch that forces Dorico to do what I tell it, even if I am deemed to be wrong, that will stay in that position!
It’s a bit like Safari on the iPad, which tries to forbid me to visit perfectly safe websites because “it has been determined that this site may be unsafe”. I am allowed to proceed, but only after I jump over the hurdles that Apple puts in my way…
