That was my mistake -- I was not doing cross-staff. I forgot that
wasn't the only use for Note Mover and had neglected to check that
before trying my experiment. So I was actually moving the notes to the
other staff, not simply having them appear in the other staff as they do
with cross-staff
Hi David,
That's interesting. I just tried it again on my FinWin2003 system and
confirmed that note mover in cross staff mode most assuredly does not
move rests, whether at the beginning, middle, or end of a measure.

fill
Finale2003 for windows DOES move the rest, right along with the notes.
At least, it appeared to do so in the quick experiment I just ran. The
lower staff ended up with three moved 8th-notes and a final 8th-rest.
The top staff ended up with a half-rest where the 3 8th-notes and the
8th-rest had
I don't know how this worked in Fin2000, but in FinWin2003 I just
entered 7 8th-notes and an 8th-rest. Chose the note-mover tool, clicked
in the measure, drew a box around the 3 handles for the final three
8th-notes and the rest (which didn't have a handle) and clicked and
dragged them all to
Finale as of 2003 does not support cross-staving of rests directly,
except through workarounds like the one sugggested so far. Please write
to Coda asking them to include this feature. It seems like it wouldn't
be that hard to add if more people needed and requested it. Let them
know if this would
Larry,
Hide the rest in the upper staff part. Put rests in the lower staff, hide
those except the last 8th.

Dear List,
I wrote a piano part that includes cross staff beaming. This worked fine,
except I need an eighth rest at the end of the measure and FinaleMac
(2000c) insists on placing the rest in the right hand. I want the rest to
appear in the left hand only. What should I do to fix this?
