You can hide/show tuplet brackets for individual tuplets, and independently of tuplet numbers/ratios. You can do this for the current layout and frame chain only, or for all layouts and frame chains.
Prerequisite
-
The lower zone is shown.
-
Properties
is selected in the lower zone toolbar. -
If you are in Engrave mode, Graphic Editing
is selected in the Engrave toolbox. -
You have chosen the appropriate property scope for local properties.
Procedure
- Select the tuplet brackets you want to hide, or the signposts of tuplets whose brackets you want to show. You can do this in Write mode and Engrave mode.
- In the Properties panel, activate Bracket in the Tuplets group.
-
Choose one of the following options:
-
Hidden
-
Shown
-
Result
Brackets on the selected tuplets are hidden/shown. If the property scope was set to Locally, this change only takes effect in the current layout and frame chain.
Signposts are shown at the position of each hidden tuplet; that is, tuplets with no numbers/ratios or brackets shown.
After Completing This Task
If you want to hide indications of tuplets entirely, you might also need to hide the tuplet numbers/ratios.
