pwgl-users: An Easy Way to Change Tempo?

Can anyone please provide (a) an example of changing a score's tempo  
(global or local) by enp-script or (b) an easy way to graphically  
change tempo?

I haven't found a way to do (a) and changing tempo graphically (b)  
only works for the current measure, the old tempo is pushed to the  
next measure.  For example, create a new score and add a measure.   
You've got two measures of quarter notes at quarter note = 60.  Now  
change the tempo graphically in the first measure to, say, 1/4 = 144.   
It changes, but the second measure is still marked at quarter = 60.   
To change to a different tempo, every measure must be changed for  
every part.  Of course, you can create a score using FLAT or KSQUANT  
with a different tempo, but I want to be able to take an arbitrary  
score and change it using constraints.

Thanks in advance for any insights into this problem,

Jeff Fried.

Re: pwgl-users: An Easy Way to Change Tempo?

Apparently, I found a workaround for (b).  If you right click on empty  
space in the score instead of the individual tempo marking, you can  
change the tempo globally instead of inserting a new tempo indicator  
(and pushing the old one a measure forward), so at least I've got a  
graphically solution.  I'm still interested in knowing how to script it.

all the measures are quarter=60 by default. if the tempo is the same as in the previous measure it will not be
displayed. you can select / sweep select several metros (in the RTM mode where all the tempi are displayed)
and manipulate them using the contextual menus or the mouse (you can even scroll forward and shift select /
sweep select to add to the selection...)

See the attached patch

pwgl-users: Chord Editor layout


Hello to everyone,

I have some chords in a chord editor. They are in Arpeggio state and the
Chord editor is in Page View.
I want to push everything more to the left so all the notes can fit inside
the page. 
I tried with the red lines like in a score editor (it works there...) but
unfortunately nothing happens.
If I zoom out to fit all the notes inside, then it becomes too small.
Is there a way in a chord editor, page view to push the items more to the
left? (by the way by selecting the treble clef, I can push items higher or
lower). 

thank you,

Dimitris
