Metric Modulation Comparisons and Workarounds?

[MatHejl]

Hi everyone,

Working with metric modulations, the fonts like Metrico do help a great deal. However, their appearance is inconsistent with other tempo information in Dorico. The closest I could get to achieve similarity is by creating a playing technique glyph from imported slices:

(from the left: metrico, glyphs from Dorico (short flags), Dorico default metric modulation)

Particularly with larger number of parts, working with playing techniques in the places of tempo is not particularly smooth. Would there be perhaps a better workaround to get it working?

Thanks for your attention. Any tips will be appreciated.

Best,

Matouš

Hi,

You can compare here Metrico with MusGlyphs, which you might prefer:

MusGlyphs is based on Bravura & Academico, which are Dorico’s default fonts.

Thanks a lot. That does indeed look much better.
