me either, Darcy.

In a case not long ago, with a composer we eventually decided to publish,
this issue came up. In order to avoid all confusion we simply decided to
show the beat unit's metronome markings at the beginning of each of the two
affected sections. I'm still not sure the composer was convinced the more
recommended method was OK to use, despite lots of evidence provided to
support it. This person was schooled in the traditional method and just
wasn't comfortable with the change. The compromise is clear, of course, so
everyone's happy now.

To stay even more OnT with Finale-- it's nice that one has only to set up
the arrow and notes the first time, and then just use that shape as a
template, changing the note values and adding or deleting dots as required.
