1 . In the Fit box Notion shows how many note values you selected . In the case of notes/rests of even value, this is

straightforward, and you can leave this box as is . If the notes/rests you highlighted are of different time values,

Notion bases the number here on the lowest value . If this is not what you intended, you can change this number (it

must be a divisor of the current meter) .

2 . In the Into box you specify how many counts (of this note value) Notion should count to cover the number of notes

in the Fit box .

3 . In the drop-down list select one of the following:

>

Auto Bracket: for default handling of brackets . Some situations, such as beamed notes, do not produce brackets .

>

Show Bracket: to force the bracket to display .

>

Hide Bracket: to force the bracket to not be seen .

TIP: If you are not sure what is the proper way to notate a tuplet, leave this at the Auto Bracket default .

4 . You have the option of having the tuplet mark itself with a simple number (from the Fit box) or Show as ratio of

Fit: Into

numbers .

The triplet on the left has a number from the Fit box. The triplet on the right is shown as a ratio.
