Re: [Finale] Ties over double bars

[Michael Cook]

I would avoid the dotted tie. As a performer, if I see a dotted tie, I tend to think it's either optional or something that the editor added. If you want a totally unambiguous solution, you could put the beginning of the repeat one measure later and put first and second endings at the end of the repeat. If this seems too complicated, I think you should just use solution "a": otherwise, the performer might consider the tie to be optional and omit it altogether.

Here is an engraving question:

Two sections in the piece, the second one repeated. From the first to the
second section is a tied note. Should the tie
a) cross the double repeat bar as though it was a normal barline,
b) consist of two tie ends, one before the repeat bar line, one after,
c) be dotted over the repeat bar line?
