I don't know if there's a notational standard for this situation, but I don't recall seeing double dots for it. If omitting a dot on one of the layers (EX: enter a note of the same unit but without a dot) isn't feasible due to subsequent notes or for playback issues, is there any efficient way to eliminate the extra dot? And (keeping in mind we're dealing with double stems) would the position of the single dot--above the line or below the line--be determined by where on the staff the note is? That is, above the line if the note is below the middle line and below the note if it's on or above it? What Finale does is actually completely correct. However, there is an option somewhere where you can switch this off: in Fin2k3 it is in the Augmentation Dot options pane in the document options. The position of the dot will then always be above the line as far as I can see.

Since the note is a unison, the improper length probably won't be a problem. I've been altering the duration of the un-dotted note with the Midi Tool because on playback, the dropout is noticeable to the ear.
