![]() ![]() Naturally the adjacent signpost would also be blood-red. All as an Awful Warning not to steal turnips if you were hungry, nor to be rude to the squire. The gist of it being that condemned men were usually hanged on gibbets erected at crossroads, and left there, blood dripping from their lacerations, to be pecked by crows until they rotted away. I wrote a post featuring the one at Benville, north-west of here (see Blood-spattered signposts, and transportation for life on 23rd October 2016), and reiterated what a passing chappie, who seemed to know his stuff, had to say about why these posts were painted red, and not the usual white. These red posts are scattered around the West of England, and are not at all numerous, which makes them pretty special. The post is topped by a London Underground-style circle and crosspiece with 'Dorset Red Post' on it, and the Ordnanace Survey grid reference (minus the letters that identify the 100 x 100 kilometre square, in this instance SY). You can even see (in the bottom shot) how they mount the fingers one on top of each other, and can angle them just so. Americans could benefit greatly by adopting some of the principles of the European lifestyle.As you can see, it has had a makeover, and is all freshly repainted. I wish American workers had such an arrangement. Until you mentioned it, I had completely forgotten about that. Years ago, I managed a team that included many Europeans and I was keenly aware of how inflexible the holiday season is. ![]() It is actually a positive sign, but it is probably a bit overwhelming at this stage.Īnd I don’t think most Americans understand the European holiday schedule. This is surfacing many things that are bugs, unexpected consequences, misunderstandings or whatever. ![]() Regarding the timing and content of the patch releases, I think what is happening here is that many people are looking upon version 2 as the first almost-production version and are putting it to hard tests in the real world. I am worried I might lose some of by settings by doing that. Once I had one lead sheet looking the way I wanted it, I simply copied the Dorico file so that I would have all the settings. This came up as I was creating lead sheets. But it seems strange and redundant to leave a whole series of signposts that are identical. If I had entered many different time signatures, then leaving behind signposts might make sense. When you select a single barline and hit Delete, a time signature signpost is left behind because there is still a bar division there, if there is an earlier time signature that has yet to be countermanded.īut the earlier time signature was the same (4/4) everything was 4/4. It is for the time being the expected behaviour (and has been that way since before Dorico 1.0, as far as I know!). 1000 to delete (nominally) 1000 bars (if your flow is shorter than 1000 bars, the whole thing will therefore be deleted), or using the new system track to remove everything. If your goal is to remove all the music, I’d suggest either deleting and recreating the flow, or selecting the first bar of the flow and typing Shift+B to open the bars popover, then type e.g. It’s a side-effect of the fact that bars have to be brought into existence specially in Dorico rather than all of the music being fundamentally organised into bars. So when you select the whole flow and hit Delete, it is like deleting all of the barlines individually, and Dorico creates overridden time signatures at each of those rhythmic positions. When you select a single barline and hit Delete, a time signature signpost is left behind because there is still a bar division there, if there is an earlier time signature that has yet to be countermanded. The behaviour Craig has reported concerning doing Select All followed by Delete leaving behind lots of red time signature signposts is counter-intuitive, but it is for the time being the expected behaviour (and has been that way since before Dorico 1.0, as far as I know!). In addition to fixing quite a number of bugs, there are some useful new features, and we are very excited to get the update into your hands. We are very keenly aware that users are waiting for important bug fixes for the new features introduced in Dorico 2.0, and you will soon have them: we are in the middle of the holiday season and key members of the teams both in London and Hamburg are away at the moment, but it is our intention to have the update with you in the next couple of weeks. ![]()
