Hi Linda, 1. From the time sig dialog click Composite 2. Enter 2+2+3 in beat groups 3. Enter 8 in beat duration If you want 7/8 to display instead of 2+2+3/8 then continue with #4 (otherwise click OK): 4. Click Options 5. Check use a different time signature for display 6. Change to 7/8 7. Click OK
I don't know what version or system you are on, but this should be very close. Good luck, Rick Neal -----Original Message----- From: Linda Worsley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Apr 26, 2005 11:51 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Finale] grouping notes in 7/8 Help, I don't know how to fix this: A student has given me a Finale file of a piece in 7/8. Lots of eighth notes, all flagged, even though the pattern is pretty consistently 2/2/3. Is there a way to beam the groups instead of all those spidery flags all ovr the page. 16ths and above are beamed, naturally, but oy, all those eighths. Help, and thanks in advance.
