I must disagree with the previous explanations of how the Elapsed Time function works (or doesn't work). It does indeed take Tempo Tool modifications into account when calculating the duration of a passage, at least on Fin2k4a. I believe Fin2k2 did ignore Tempo Tool data, and I don't recall wheth

Well, under normal circumstances I would of course write the altos in the treble clef, ledger lines and all, in this case they are doubling the tenors exactly for the entire movement, so I'm inclined to make an exception. The altos may be fine with all those ledger lines below the staff, but t

Hi Darcy, Tenor - Baritone - Bass is a very normal way to indicate an even 3-way split of the men's voices. The other alternatives imply an uneven split - fine if that's what you want, but a composer's decision rather than an engraver's, I think. The alto stuff is probably because in the last per

You could use my Mass Copy plugin to do this as follows: 1. Manually create a tuplet on the first trio of 16ths. 2. Using Partial Measure selection, select only that triplet of 16ths. 3. Open Mass Copy and check only "Tuplets". 4. Select the entire region you want to tripletize. (You can safely i
