Changing the numerator style of time signatures

You can choose whether the numerators of individual time signatures show the total number of beats in each bar, or the subdivision of beats in each bar, independently of your project-wide setting.

Procedure

  1. Select the time signatures whose numerator style you want to change. You can do this in Write mode and Engrave mode.
  2. In the Properties panel, activate Numerator style in the Time Signatures group.
  3. Choose one of the following options:
    • Number

    • Beat group

Result

The numerator style of the selected time signatures is changed.

Tip

You can change the numerator style of all time signatures project-wide on the Time Signatures page in Engrave > Engraving Options.
