I am entering chant for the first time in Finale 2002 with reasonable
success. But I need black notes, and am having difficulty hiding quarter-note stems.
I was told to click the Staff Tool and double-click the staff, then in the
"Items to Display" section to uncheck "stems" and click OK. BUT--in my version
of Finale 2002 there is no check-box marked "stems."
I can remove the stems by going to the "Special Tools Tool" Custom Stem Tool,
selecting the stems, and shortening each to the position of the notehead.
(Double-clicking a stem in this situation does not open the Shape Selection
Dialog Box, so I can't go this route).
Can someone explain to me (simply!) what I am missing?
Aaron has made a suggestion on what might be easier.
Another one would be to simply enter all the notes as whole notes, then
use the Mass-Mover to select notes (use Partial Measures to select
individual notes or a couple out of the measure) and then use
MassEdit/Change/Notehead to change the selected whole note(s) to the
black notehead.
