hi don, makes sense i suppose mainly for smaller fragments. the score i am curently working on has 2 layters/voices both full measure, maybe this is part of the reason i find it frustrating. in a few instances with just a beat or something split in voices i found it easier to manage.
i don't see the behaviour you mention for stem up/down. the behaviour seems to be that voice 2 has to be the higher one: - v2, when entered higher than v1, will have all stems up for the entire v2 passage - v2, when entered lower than v1, will have stems up only for the first beat of v1 e.g. enter: 1) v1 E5 for 4 quarters (stems are down by default) 2) v2 B5 for 4 quarters = 4 B's 4 stems up; 4 E's stems down but enter: 1) v1 B5 for 4 quarters (stems are down by default) 2) v2 E5 for 4 quarters = B on 1st beat stem up, 3 other B's stems down; 4 E's stems down weird. no? cheers, jef >I use probably voicees more than layers.
