When you rebar music, it always adopts Finale's default beat
divisions, according to the metre. If you change the metre into
Composite... then enter something like 1 beat unit on top, then
however many beats you need in EDUs (1024 EDUs per quarter note, or
4096 per whole note; you'll have to do some manual addition) then the
note divisions will always be as long as possible. This still isn't
what you want (unchanged) but it might be closer.

Thanks Christopher,
That works, but if I am reducing the number of beats in a measure,
then the
extras are out in no-man's land, rather than being put into a new
measure of
their own. Is there a way to get them back?
I am working on Byzantine chant, un-metered, so I input the notes
and then
organize the measure lengths into textual units. With "rebar=on" and
"measure region=through end of piece" all the measures rebar nicely.
Thanks again.

Unclick the box "rebar music?" before you hit OK.

In Finale 2008, dotted notes are being changed to tied notes within

change to
prevent this?
