Regular spacing [Feature request]

• Feb 9, 2021 - 09:59

Hello,

It seems to me that it would be great to have a regular spacing option, especially for percussion instrument scores.

I know it's really a matter of habit, and that it also has its negative sides. However it would also help a lot of people and would be appreciated graphically.

For example, in this score, the sextuplet takes more space than the eight sixteenth notes, and the spacing is not even in the triplet : Divisions irrégulières.mscz

Thanks ! :)

This is something we may well supprot someday. Meanwhile, you can get this effect by entering a whole stream of invisible sixteenth rests (or whatever duration value you need) in another voice.

Hello Marc, thanks for your answer. Supporting this regular spacing would really be appreciated I think.

Actually it is what I always do in my scores. It generally works fine, but in this case, when 32th notes and sextuplet are mixed, it doesn't seem to work. 8th notes, 16th, triplets and sextuplets are spaced regularly, but the 32th behave strangely, they seem to follow the sextuplets somehow:
