owain, it is indeed possible, you just have to tweak. i have this expression already made up, let me know what your time sig font and staff line thicknesses are, i'll send you a library (F2003 okay?) with expressions adjusted for your needs.
From: dhbailey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
figure out a time signature that will give you the correct number of notes, and then hide that in your music
actually it is better to have a white-filled box under the /5 time sig, you can then maintain the spacing finale allows for the time signature (some adjustments sometimes necessary when using /24, since it is wider than the /16 it replaces)
Assign this expression to the first note in the measure...
measure-attached will allow for better control, especially in multi-staved scores.
