Dear Dorico developers,

I am reporting what I believe to be bugs:

  1. Hiding cautionary time signatures & key signatures does not work.

    Could the hiding of the rest at the beginning of bar 3 be the reason for this?

  2. A wrong horizontal spacing

Thanks in advance!

I think what’s happened is that you added the Allegro q=112 attached at the grace note instead of the main note. This accounts for (1) the crazy spacing, (2) if you delete the grace note, the tempo mark goes up to the end of the previous system, and (3) trying to nudge the tempo mark by the grid does not work.

The easiest way I found to fix this is to drag the tempo mark to the right with the mouse until it attaches to a later beat, and then move it back to the downbeat. Then it is positioned correctly over the meter, and the grace note spacing is also right.

Yes. I would move the 5 semiquavers back to the start of the pickup and change them to a 5:6x tuplet (and hide it).
