Currently I am working on a section in 8/4 time with a measure that
starts with two consecutive dotted quarters. When I REBAR the score
(which I wind up doing innumerable times in the course of any given
project) Finale turns the second dotted quarter into an 8th tied to a
quarter, and furthermore keeps the x-shaped notehead that I want on the
8th and turns the quarter's head into the regular round shape. Is there
any way that I can get Finale to leave my rhythm as I wrote it? I am
using Finale 2003 on a PC.
There are several ways one might use. One of the simplest is as follows:
select the measure in question, and the time signature tool. If necessary
click "other options" in the upper right hand corner of the time signature
dialog box, to expand the dialog box. In the lower half of the expanded
box, click the box "Use a different time signature for display", and in
the upper part of the lower half of the box, click the button bearing the
label "composite", which opens the "composite time signature dialog box".
In the three leftmost upper boxes, enter 3, 3, and 2, and in the4 three
leftmost lower boxes, enter 8, 8, and 8, so that when done, the time
composite time signature shows 3/8 + 3/8 + 2/8.
