I think the two noteheads and dots are needed because the notes and dots don't
mean the same as each other.
The situation is different for an isolated bar than for a consistent rhythmic
feature of the piece. Chopin for example often broke conventions rhythmically
but was always elegantly
The note with stem up needs to be before the note with stem down.
I seem to be in a minority.. but to me the idea of two distinctly
valued notes sharing a notehead is just bad.
As far as I see the only decision to be made is wether you can neatly
have the noteheads touching with the dots
in all those places would clutter up the
music unnecessarily.
Context is everything. I wouldn't do this on a part where two wind
instruments share the same staff, for instance, but pianists are
used to music written this way.

This explains why I thought I'd achieved it a few times but
If there are a large number of bars in a row to be fixed you can also
use the 6 x 8 time signature with 'different sig for display' so that
finale doesn't add a redundant time sig announcement.

No, the option is to extend the beam over a rest to the right side of the beam.

I'm not near finale now, but there is a document option called beam over
rests that can be turned on or off, isn't there?

I put my favourite default files in the Component Files folder, then they
show
up when I use the Setup Wizard as a style.

I've already done this. I removed US Letter completely from this file.
I still have to deselect then reselect the document style and only
then do I get A4 - without touching the page sizes.
Any other ideas - there may be some basic, obvious thing I've never

What page size is selected _before_ you select String Quartet?
Letter
Once you have got the page sizes menu to read A4, can you still find
US Letter in it if you click on it?
Yes - and all the others deleted from my 'pagesizes.txt'

Something else I've been kludging..
I set up right and left page numbers in my score.
I don't want these in the parts, but I can't see where to specify this?
Thanks!

In my previous notation program I used a lot of empty text boxes to
stop things from appearing in print.
I had the option of moving the graphics layer of any element
(including these white boxes) up or down.
Is there any equivalent in Finale?
Thanks!

I've used them to hide bits of staves, bits of notes etc.
Things that I want to half hide.
For modern scores.
How can I get an opaque box?
Does anyone have any info on layers?
Thanks!

In that case, the pagesizes.txt that Finale is using is not the one
you edited. The page sizes menu in the Setup Wizard is constructed
from the pagesizes.txt file. On Mac, if you're using Finale 2011,
you have to edit the file in the library in your user folder, not in
the main library.
Great, I unshowed (unshew?) then unlinked then reshowed (reshew...?) ;-)
Worked as explained.
Thanks!

Is it possible to send a score file to someone?
I have an issue that seems like a bug and a general question.
Finally enough of a break in between work to get my chops up..
