OK, I might add this. In music for junior high school jazz ensemble, you might see swing eighth notes notated with a dash under the first, a period under the second of a pair. This is to force the long / short (2/3 to 1/3) phrasing of swing notes. But it mucks up the score so badly that you normally would not see that in any serious music beyond junior high level.
