General Discussion / Re: triplets, quitlets, ecet. and gace notes
I've been looking at NWC 2.0, thinking of buying an upgrade license (I probably lost my original disk 2 years before this topic was last posted in). But although there are lots of conveniences and prettification that are pretty cool, it looks like, 7 years later, there's *still* no way to do tuplets other than triplets, short of really unpleasant workarounds! Is this still on the radar?

A way to put in arbitrary tuplets using enterable x:y notation (e.g., 11:7 for 11 even notes that take up the space usually taken up by 7 notes, to use a really obscure example) would be ideal, but even hardcoded quituplets and septuplets would be a huge improvement--neither note form is very rare in music written since 1850 or so ("Arabian Coffee" from the Nutcracker Suite has septuplets, IIRC), and I think other tuplets (except duplets, quadruplets, etc, which can be done via dotting) are substantially rarer than those two.
