I'm using 2011 for Windows, and I HAVE turned that off, and it STILL insists on grouping in fours. Is there another "switch" somewhere that I'm missing that I need to also turn off to stop this? The one that really kills me is it's still beaming over rests, which I see as a "modern" thing,

Aaron, Thanks for the tip. I'd forgotten about this default. I do know that beaming 4 eights together in common time is, in general, standard practice, but there are cases where it leads to ugly results — where large intervals are involved, for instance — and I was annoyed that I couldn't overri

M ... Can anyone on the list confirm this beaming "issue"? (FinMac 2011, OS 10.6.8) Enter a measure of eight-notes in 4/4 with Speedy/Midi. They are beamed together in groups of _four_. :-( "Rebeaming" to the time signature 4/4 doesn't work, although rebeaming to 8/8 and 1/1 does. This has j
