pre-Reviewing Dorico

Post by OCTO »

Friends, I am tempted to move to Dorico after years of Finale and a few years of Sibelius (and a very few years of MuseScore).
So, I would like to know if some or all features are possible in Dorico or not. If it is somewhat easier to do, or it is at all possible.
I will give you a bunch of screenshots with questions.
