Hello again, An update to my earlier question. I'm engraving a piece now that uses 5/4 and 6/4 time signatures. I have a full measure rest for one of each time signatures. I'd like to have a single rest note for those measures, not "r1 r4" and not "r1 r2". How to do that?
What about "9/8"? Etc...things that don't have a denominator of 4.
