You are here: How do I... > P > Parts > Tuplets in linked parts

When a tuplet is added to either the score or part, it appears in both. When a tuplet is deleted from either the score or part, it is removed from both.

The following properties of tuplets are permanently shared between the score and parts:

The following table lists properties of tuplets that are broken if changed in a part:

 

Property changed

Link type broken

Repositioning (nudge, drag, or H: V: values)

Positioning

Bracket direction (Over/Under/Flip)

Direction

Editing the slope or hook length of a tuplet bracket

Positioning

Hide/Show setting

You can use the F key to flip a tuplet to the other side of the staff. If you do so in the score, the tuplet also flips in all parts containing that tuplet (if it hasn’t been broken). Flipping the tuplet in a part breaks the link and does not apply to the score or other parts.

You can reverse the linking behavior while flipping tuplets using the CTRL key. For example, select a tuplet in a part, hold down the CTRL key and press F to flip the tuplet in both the score and part, retaining the link. Select a tuplet in the score, hold down the CTRL key and press F to flip the tuplet in the score only, breaking the link to the part/all parts that contain that staff.
