I’ve got a series of eight notes, beamed in couples with their heads placed on two different adjacent staves (like a piano double staff system). They where so positioned via Note Mover –> Cross Staff; the top note has the stem facing downward and vice versa, therefore, the beam line lays horizontally between the two note-heads. Two staccato dots are placed on the note-heads but the staccato for the note one the top staff is erroneously positioned under the beam, instead of being above the note-head. If I double click the articulation’s handle, that’l suddenly move the staccato to its proper place, but just for the moment, until any other action is taken, after which it’ll go back to the original, unwanted place. It looks like Finale can’t deal with articulations on cross-staff notes with reversed stem, at least it’s happening to me now (and was the same in the past, as far as I recall). I understand I could manually place an attachment of the needed symbol, but I would first try to see if there’s a possible, more effective workaround. Running Finale 25.5 on a Mac.
Did you place the staccato dots before moving the notes to the other staff? If not, try that.
If you've already done it that way (gotten the music all set first and then moved the notes with the note mover) then I'm out of ideas other than manually moving the articulations that are wrong.
