Ornaments in Parentheses?

• Feb 20, 2025 - 16:59

So, I'm transcribing the Bach Cello suites right now for myself, including fingerings, preferred bowings, some dynamics and my ornamentation for performance. While it's going well so far, I would like to be able to put ornaments that I put in in brackets of some kind to distinguish those from the ones Anna Magdalena Bach had written in her manuscript (the manuscript I'm transcribing from). Is there any reasonable way to do this?

Only way I can see to do this is to add them as text and adjust their position with the Offset property. There is no way to do it automagically :-(

See my comment at the end of https://musescore.org/en/node/300462 about the Bracketura font.
While this works correctly on Linux, the Bracketura font is (was: it has been a while i checked) not visible in MuseScore for Windows. Probably same issue as https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/issues/16188
(and maybe not unimportant: Nepomuk is from the same font designer, and also works perfectly in Linux)
