There are a lot of things for which this is true. I sent in a feature
request a few years ago for something like staff styles that could be
used for note spacing. (I had a piece t
This file contains several movements, some of which are 4/4, some 4/2.
So I don't think I can do this for the entire file. Is it possible to
do this for a specific region?

I recently did a piece that switches between 4/2 and 6/2 and did
exactly as you say. The only problem would hav
Yes, the piece changes meter (it is several movements long, and I am

I suppose I could put in two whole rests in such measures, but that is
just not as professional looking as the single double whole rest. What
would happen if I entered a whole rest first (then making it
invisible), then a double whole rest on the third beat (and when the

Sadly, no. TGTools appears to figure out how wide the measure is and
apply an EVPU offset to the rest. The offset is the same in score and
parts, so if there are different mea

Couldn't you use tuplets to make whole rests appear as double whole rests?

The modern texts I consulted are not in complete agreement. Both Ross
and Stone say that you should use a double-whole in meters 4/2 and
larger. I agree with them, and that is what I practice. You can see it
for yourself in engravings of std. rep. pieces such as the Brahms
Requiem.
