Tuplet numbers allowed inside the staff lines

Hello community,

(looked it all through…)

Isn’t it possible to have tuplet numbers written on the staff lines or cross them ???
I know i can pull them in engrave mode one by one to the wanted position, but isn’t there an option that generally allows it if needed?

No, sorry. How to make tuplets not avoid staff lines? - #2 by Kunstderfuge - Dorico - Steinberg Forums

Puuuh!
That’s a bummer, don’t like that!
It’s common practise in publishing, and in my opinion looks awful when the number ist somewhere decoupled below the system.
And when you drag the numbers manually, they also get a sudden unwanted horizontal X-offset which you then only can correct with these tiny little arrow button in the properties panel.

We certainly don’t rule it out for the future.

Apologies for returning to this old thread but I’m just wanting to confirm that this is still not possible. I’d love to put this back on the radar as a feature request.

The situation is unchanged. You can be sure they haven’t forgotten.

New user – since Finale bagged out. This is still an issue, not a grave one, but an issue. Finale has lots of bugs of it’s own, but it also has a checkbox to allow tuplets to be ON the staff. Oddly, this is not the default.
