If you mean this literally, that is, B above the staff followed by G
E G, all *below* the staff, then I would use a beam that runs below
the B and above all the others.
On the other hand, if G E G are all in the staff (i.e., g' e' g')
then I don't understand the fuss at all. What's wrong with Finale's
(slanted) default? For that matter, what's wrong with horizontal?
Sorry, I was very inaccurate: b", g", e",g" (all in the same octave).
Finale's default (Based on Extreme Note) is flat.
