Hi Richard,

The way my brain works, I find it a lot easier to just enter the notes in a 
huge stream (sometimes dozens and dozens of measures at a time) and then going 
back and adding durations where needed (which, in my music, tends to be fewer 
places than you’d imagine!).

I don’t know if LilyQuick ever got integrated into Frescobaldi… but if it did, 
that sounds like it would do what you’re talking about.

Cheers,
Kieren.
