This is possible. I don’t know if one changes the grid resolution often enough for this to make sense as a dedicated StreamDeck page, but NE might of course add such a page. If they don’t, or until they do, you could add a few key commands to your keycommands_en.json
file. I have set up the key combination Ctrl+Shift+G, followed by the note value number (8 for whole note, 7 for half note etc.).
If you haven’t yet created any personal key commands (i. e. if there is no keycommands_en.json file in your Dorico preferences folder (%Appdata%\Steinberg\Dorico 4
on Windows), then you can simply extract the attached ZIP file to that folder.
keycommands_en.zip (417 Bytes)
If you do have that file already, first make a backup copy of it. Then use a text editor to find the lines
"context" : "kWriteMode",
"shortcuts" : [
and add these lines immediately below them:
{
"NoteInput.SetGridResolution?RhythmicGridResolutionValue=kDemisemiquaver" : [ "Ctrl+Shift+G, 3" ]
},
{
"NoteInput.SetGridResolution?RhythmicGridResolutionValue=kSemiquaver" : [ "Ctrl+Shift+G, 4" ]
},
{
"NoteInput.SetGridResolution?RhythmicGridResolutionValue=kQuaver" : [ "Ctrl+Shift+G, 5" ]
},
{
"NoteInput.SetGridResolution?RhythmicGridResolutionValue=kCrotchet" : [ "Ctrl+Shift+G, 6" ]
},
{
"NoteInput.SetGridResolution?RhythmicGridResolutionValue=kMinim" : [ "Ctrl+Shift+G, 7" ]
},
{
"NoteInput.SetGridResolution?RhythmicGridResolutionValue=kSemibreve" : [ "Ctrl+Shift+G, 8" ]
},
Now you can set the grid resolution directly by typing the key combinations. Of course, you can also add a StreamDeck page that utilizes these shortcuts as well.
