Tempo Aligning

[k.k]

Is there a way to align “Andante ♩=00” horizontally in Tempo?
When I enter them normally, the “♩=00” text is positioned lower than “Andante.”

Do you not get

Or do you mean that the 1/4-note is too tall compared to “A”?

Could k.k be using the music font for the quarter note symbol instead of the music version, or vice-versa?

[k.k]

The Andate text is set in Times New Roman, while quarter notes are rendered using the Bravura music font.

I am not a font expert, but it might be better to not mix two fonts here.

In any case, using Bravura is wrong. You should use Bravura text, which is Bravura but with all the bells and whistles (ascendings, descendings, kerning) adapted to align with plain text. My 2 c.

What’s wrong in the file? Which part should I fix?

[MarcLarcher]

Library menu>Character styles>Metronome mark Music Text>Bravura text instead of Bravura
(things have changed here in Dorico 6)

When I use the Bravura Text font for the note symbol, it appears smaller than the default. Is there a way to preserve the note size while keeping it aligned properly?
