Can't change measure size with the brackets

• Mar 31, 2021 - 13:15

Hello, I have can't seem to decrease or increase my measures using the shift+brackets. I do as indicated by selecting the measures to be decreased/increased, then holding the shift key then the corresponding bracket needed. Nothing happens! Is there another way of changing measures?

On my Swedish keyboard the curly braces are produced with AltGr+7 and AltGr+0

And this does not work in MuseScore to do the strech thing. I always have to go into the menus to do this. My plan is to add a new shortcut for this.

Most likely, though, there is some other reason, like there is a system break preventing more measures from fitting, or you've hit the minimum, or you are increasing the relative stretch factor for multiple measures at by the same amount at the same time, which of course results in no visible change (they keep the same relative size).

In order to understand and assist better, we'd need you to attach your score and tell us which specific measures you are trying to stretch.
