12/8 still notates as 4/4

• Jul 18, 2010 - 17:53

When I create a lead sheet and then choose 12/8 I expect 8th notes to automatically be in groups of 3. Instead the program insists they be in groups of 2 as would be the case with 4/4 or any time signature based upon 2,4,8 etc. As it is I have to breack each measure up with 4 quater note rests and then divide those into triplets. This is time consuming and not productive. is there a way to create a 6/8 or 12/8 style that will do this?

I just created a new score, with 12/8 signature, and filled the first measure with 8th notes.....they went by 3....
