hi people,
I'd love to be able to write R*4 to get 4 full measure rests without
having to think about time signature. This would be very convenient.
Therefore i'm sorry to hear that such a feature is likely impossible
to implement properly (if David says so, there's a good

That is how I join parts together with time changes, and I didn't thin

I've read all the emails on this, and personally agree that R*5 for 5 FMRs
of whatever time sig would be a step forward. Whether this is easy or
difficult to implement is irrelevant to the way we handle enhancement
requests.

That is perfectly possible right now (and for a very long time):

Assuming that staff is in 4/4 time (there is no time signature currently), then
R1*2, R1*3, and R1*4 sho
