Hide Dot in Score #5

Closed benory closed 9 months ago

For Wil3041, at measures 23–24, I have notated the tied breves in the Superius as "[0B" and "0.B]" which produces a dotted breve. Since the Superius is not yet in sesquialtera, I want to use "0B]" alone, but VHV does not like this solution. What should I do to omit the dot?

For proper performance rendering there will be a better way of encoding: Music in 3 mensuration can be more properly encoded as triplets, and then use *Xtuplet to prevent display of tuplet brackets, and *tuplet if you need to show tuplet brackets again.

note encoding
triplet whole note 3%2
triplet breve note 4%3

3%2 means the note is 2/3rds of a whole note (or a whole note is 3/2 of a triplet whole note).

An intermediate method to avoid changing a lot of rhythms is to use triplet encoding method when not all parts have entered 3 mensuration. When they all are in 3, add line:

!!primary-mensuration: 3

And encode the 3 mensuration notes as they currently are (as duple notes).

Great. I've adjusted Wil3041.
