Re: Tick lines for beats in bar

Solved my own problem. I had not realised the setting of the Timing properties has to come after the time signature, not before. Sure had me stumped.

How can I get tick barlines to indicate beats in a bar, within the time signature. The example at hand is in 10/8, but the composer likes to put a tick at every beat particularly when the music gets complex.
