Beaming ⅝ as a single beat?
Moderators: Peter Thomsen, miker
I'm afraid I've forgotten if there's a way to set the Time Signature to beam 5 eighths together. I tried the composite TS window but I couldn't find a denominator value which would yield the desired result. It's not a problem to beam everything after the fact but I was just wondering...

Actually, the Time Signature Tool is quite powerful.

Obviously it qualifies as a (minor) bug in the User Interface.
