Hello.
Someone probably already asked that, but due to my lack of language knowledge I wasn’t able to find anything.
In my score, when I go to parts, I have multibar rest on. Good, that’s what I want. But when it happens that there is only one bar, dorico puts a big number “1” above the measure.
Is there a way to remove that?
Cheers.
There it was!
Thanks
Should this also work in Elements? Or only in PRO?
Only Dorico Pro has access to Engraving Options.
And is there a way to alter this on individual multi-bar rests? I notice that a lot of things that can be set-up in PRO for automatic layouting can be controlled in Elements manually
I don’t believe so, no, I’m afraid.
I have the same problem. Has someone a solution for Dorico Elements?
I would be happy if there were a way to disable 1-bar multirests completely. Even without the number 1, they appear as if forced – in black (distractingly) when I always show implicit rests in grey. And there are things you can’t do by selecting a multirest that you can when selecting a regular rest.
(In Pro) You can in Engraving Options>Rests>Multi-bar Rests
It’s subtler than that. It’s not just the numeral, it’s the fact that the single-bar rest also selects and behaves like a multirest. I’ll give an example when I get back to my computer tomorrow.
Here’s an example: Select a rest and Shift-arrow to extend the selection. This works fine starting with a regular rest but fails with a multirest. In fact Shift-arrow deselects the latter! Shift-click on another multirest also fails (although Shift-clicking on a non-rest does work to extend).
I can’t really complain, as I understand multirests are system objects. But it seems unnecessary to make a single bar rest behave as a multirest when not displaying the “1”. I’ve gotten used to it by now, but I thought this thread is my chance to mention it.
