oh thank-you all!
I'm glad that the nagging voice in the back of my mind was insisting I ask the forum gurus.
I really hated the look of the tied notes.

Re: single note or tied note question (syncopation)
yeah, that's why I'm asking hehehehe.
I find the single note clearer, but one never knows, do one.

single note or tied note question (syncopation)
I have chords played in the strings, quarter note value. almost all happen on the beat... except for one, which is off by half a beat. I need to know whether I should write it as I would "normally" write an off-beat note (ie: tied values), or if I should use a single value. In the image,vi...

Re: Scores in C or transposing?
no conductor I've ever spoken to has ever said to me "I'd rather see the score in C".
as a matter of fact, most have expressed extreme disdain for any scores "in C".

Re: Accent shape
really, all I can say is that I despise the look of a very opened accent articulation (like #3 in the OP).
one of the first things I changed when I switched to Dorico was the default accent font to one that was slimmer (not that Dorico's was horribly wide, but still wider than I wanted.)

Re: Accent shape
I'm partial to the very first one you have in your lineup.
however, I find it lagging a bit too far to the left in relation to the notehead.

Re: Any percussion help? (translations)
I suspect that "moteur lent" and "moteur rapide" would be equally understood (as well as shorter)

Re: Dorico 5.1.20 released
one of my biggest fixes came with this update: aggregate time signatures. I have a passage in 7/4 in my 2nd symphony, and needed to have dotted lines to divide each measure into 4/4 plus 3/4. I could get the dotted line, but at the cost of no longer being able to have 7/4 as my time signature. This ...

Re: glissando question (text vs no-text)
I'm thinking from the point of view of consistency. Would it be inconsistent to have the "gliss" text appear only in the 1st appearance of a gliss (let's say I have a few glisses in a row), then repeating later in the score where needed? And to completely leave the text out of the harp par...

Re: glissando question (text vs no-text)
well, my own music is a bit on the tamer side, not quite as "adventurous".
