3/5 tuplet
Is there a possibility to write a 3/5 tuplet in a 5/8 measure? My understanding is that one has to select a note of the total duration in order to divide it by the number of wanted notes, but I can't find a way to select a duration of 5 eights. It is of course the duration of a full rest in 5/8, but selecting a rest doesn't seem possible.
The "mathematical solution is obvious: using 5 triplets of 3 16th and tie them in three groups of 5. But the result is unreadable:
I tried to make the measure invisible, and added a non-playable triplet, resulting into:
Is ther a way to make it look better (reducing the space after the triplet, due to a non-visible eight rest? Or is there a better way to achieve the same result (an audio file must be produced)?

What makes you say you can't select a rest?
MS defaults to 3 eighth notes, which isn't perfect, but it is easy to make the beam invisible.

Right, it works. I don't know why I couldn't select the rest. Making the beam invisible is ok. Thanks.
It is a bug in MuseScore 3 (and earlier) fixed in MuseScore 4
