How to convert p.e. normal eighth notes to triplet eighth notes in Musescore-4?


Comments

Instead of first entering notes incorrectly then correcting them, triplets are simply entered directly: in note input mode, select the total duration for the triplet, then press Ctrl+3, then enter the notes normally.

This is but one of very many reasons PDF import is seldom as efficient as simply entering the music normally. But if you wish to try, just delete the incorrect notes, fix the measure duration if necessary, and re-enter the notes. There was a "duration editor" plugin for MuseScore 3 that could help somewhat with tasks like this, but itas far as I know it is not supported for MuseScore 4, and there is normally still going to be a ton else going wrong that will make the PDF correction process slower than normal note input.
