Don’t know how I didn’t find this, but I thought I’d gone through all of the 
time signature-related snippets. Clearly not…

The snippet is almost right, but doesn’t function quite as Hindemith’s notation 
does:

The Hindemith editions use time signatures both above and in line, but never at 
the same time. They serve different purposes. The snipped removes the ability 
to do the in-line time signatures because the time signature engraver is 
removed from the main staffs. Easy enough to put in, but then I need to brush 
up enough to selectively control where a time signature appears
Hindemith also limits the effect of a superior time signature to a single 
measure. The following measure reverts (with nothing displayed) to the original 
meter. So replicating the Schott practice would mean also hiding the time 
signature following such a measure.

But this is very useful as a suggestion of an approach. Maybe I can find a way 
to selectively hide/show time signature changes in each context to get what I 
want.

Best,

Arle
