It sounds like you might be using Layer 1 as the bottom (lowest) layer and Layer 2 as the top layer. To get correct multi-layer spacing, you need to do the opposite -- Layer 1 on top, Layer 2 on bottom. (Also make sure you select the appropriate stem direction in your Layer options.)

After using Finale mostly as a scratch pad for years, I now need to create
some professional looking scores and am digging into areas I've never
worried much about.  I'm working on a contrapuntal piano score and am
running into a problem that must have a solution I'm missing. In the treble clef, I have two parts, each in its own layer. The two parts are frequently a M or m second apart. Finale always puts the note with the stem down to the left, so that the two stems are on the outside of the note- heads, rather than aligned together on the inside of the two heads. I've been manually moving the heads and stems, but I would rather not have to if there's a
better way.  In light of many other things Finale automatically does
correctly, this behavior seems odd.



Pardon me if the answer is right there in the manual and I'm just missing it

Thanks
