I've been looking at redesigning my metatools for the arpeggio mark to be
more convenient, and that has given me occasion to re-examine my rules for
vertical placement of them. I used to use a scheme which had the wavy line
vertically centered over the chord regardless of how it falls on the staff.

it depends whether you are doing a reprint of a beethoven or a score of music composed
since 1909.

That's OK with me. Everyone has its own way of being productive and

Then you have to create an expression to place on the start of the 2/2

No, they don't. Given no other indication to the contrary, quarter notes

It seems more logical
I was taught that unless it is marked otherwise, changing the time signature
from 4/4 to 2/2 cuts time in half, making the quarter notes go twice as
fast. Finale does not play it back this way, though, so my guess is that
the real convention is that if you mean to cut time in half, you must add

I have two measures of four quarter notes in 4/4 time, followed by two
