Hello !
I'd like to put a fermata on a whole note rest in an empty measure, like this :

I entered the rest with the simple entry, jumping to the following measure. But the program don't want to put the fermata on it.
How can I do it ?
Thanks !
Pat.

An idea:

Instead of entering a whole rest, enter a whole note.
Attach the fermata to the whole note.
Change the whole note to a whole rest (in Simple Entry, hit the letter R key).
