Odd tuplet number auto-placement with up-/down-bow

• May 31, 2020 - 01:05

I have noticed a very strange behaviour for the tuplet 'number' (i.e. the '3' of a set of triplets), when combined with up-/down-bowing articulations - the auto-placement puts the '3' above the articulation marks!

The attached test score shows what happens by default; what happens when the x-key is pressed for the tuplet notes (looks ok, but not really what is intended); and the desired outcome, which was achieved by turning off auto-placement on the tuplet numeral & fiddling with the offsets for the articulations.

Obviously, the final outcome is fine & workaround is not too difficult, but it just seemed a bit strange that it would do this at all, so thought i would flag it up!
Thanks!
