How to create a rallentando
New to Musescore 3, and using a Panasonic Toughbook, I want to create a rallentando at the end of the piece that I am composing. The manual isn't very helpful (for me, as a beginner.) So how do i do this?

By using the plugin (https://musescore.org/en/handbook/3/plugins) "Tempo changes" (https://musescore.org/en/project/tempochanges).

Many thanks for the link. However, as a complete novice, I am not sure which plugin to load up
I just want to be able to create a rallentando in the last few bars of the piece on which I am working.
Best wishes,
Christopher

You don't have to use the Tempo Changes plugin - it just automates a task which is a bit tiresome.
Instead you can manually add a Tempo element (from the Tempo palette) to each of the notes in the rall.
Then change each Tempo element to a gradually slower speed (using the Inspector - F8).
Finally, make all the Tempo elements invisible - perhaps except the first one, where you can change the text to "rall."

Thank you SO much Daniel, because I would never have thought about looking up palletes to find the Tempo element! First-class help, thanks!

I installed it, but it looks like it doesn't work properly.
The tempochanges panel appears, but I can't change initial and final time.
That's frustrating. Moreover, the text boxes are not invisible at all in the music sheet...

Do other plugins with text input fields work? Such as the built-in ABC-notation plugin (as in, can you write in that text field without issue?)

Why do I need plugins? Why doesn't it just have it? What happens if you're rubbish at computers and don't know how to install plugs-n? Think about the ordinary humans please!

It actually is, by using that plugin. And there's a handbook that describes how to install and use them too BTW.

lol (admiring zen reply)
Also wanted the rall and found this forum's answers were spot on and was so simple to implement the tempo plug in. Thanks
